Summary
Open Web Browser
Go to github.com/pos... or go directly to: github.com/pos...
Select "Releases" on the right-hand side of the GitHub repository
Select the first item in the release list to obtain the latest release.
Find and click on the release asset of: "Positron-[some value].exe"
This works on only Windows x64 (Intel/AMD) processors.
(Note: There is an open issue for ARM Support here: github.com/pos...)
Once done downloading, open the installer by clicking on the .exe file.
You will be prompted by the User Account Control (UAC) to allow the installer to start. Say yes.
This should open an installer window.
In the installer window, agree to the license and press next.
Allow for the default installation path and shortcut naming.
Click on add Positron shortcut to the desktop if you like desktop shortcuts.
Review install options and, then, press next.
Allow for about 80 seconds or so for the installer to complete the process.
Press "finish" to launch Positron.
Positron will run through a startup procedure that requires some time to search for installation of Python and R.
In our case, they didn't opt to start an interpreter, so we went to the "Start Interpreter" in the upper right and launched R 4.4.1.

How about a video of the basic functionality of Positron ? Coming from RStudio and Spyder, I'm having some difficulty understanding the basics of how to use Positron. Like, to get output in the console or plots window, do you have to make the call from the console ? Or, am I being stupid or missing the point of the software ?

Yes! That's coming a little later today. I had to do some last minute traveling this weekend that prevented me from showing a workflow video. In the interim, you can use Cmd + Enter to run individual lines inside of the editor. They'll automatically be populated over to the Console. Similarly, any graphing functions like ggplot() or plot() will appear inside of the "Plot" window on the lower right. This fork of VS Code for DS isn't necessarily explained well at the moment. So, I wouldn't worry too heavily. Again, it's early days. Be prepared to ask questions.

Check out: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--jhTjOK4vQ8.html Let me know what you think. This is just exploring the data side. I'll need a separate one for the R packages component...

Is Positron IDE replacing Rstudio?

@thecoatlessprofessor7674 3 месяца назад

No, Positron is not replacing RStudio. Posit will still support the RStudio IDE. Per the FAQ page: Is RStudio going away? No. We are committed to maintaining and updating RStudio. While Positron and RStudio have some features in common, some R-focused features will remain exclusive to RStudio. We began developing Positron as part of our mission to support open-source data science in multiple languages, including R and Python. If you're currently using RStudio and are happy with the experience, you can continue to enjoy RStudio. RStudio includes 10+ years of applied optimizations for R data analysis and package development. github.com/posit-dev/positron/wiki/Frequently-Asked-Questions#is-rstudio-going-away
