If you've ever needed to install R on Linux but couldn't find builds for your distro, we now have portable R builds for most modern Linux (Arch, non-LTS Ubuntu, Alpine, AL2023, etc) no root needed, extract anywhere, install multiple R side by side. R 4.6.0 down to 3.0.0, x86_64 + arm64. #rstats

Just released mori 0.1.0 on CRAN — a new R package for shared memory across processes. Parallel R no longer has to mean duplicating your dataset in every worker's RAM. opensource.posit.co/blog/2026-04... 🧵 1/3

We just released a blog post about something I'm very excited about: Great Docs. Post is in the *new* Posit Open Source site: opensource.posit.co/blog/2026-04... Great Docs is a #python pkg for creating beautiful Python package websites. We make it easy to use but also give you lots of options.

Announcing the Winners of the 2025 Posit Table Contest! 🏆 The data community showcased stunning work in #RStats/ #Python using gt, Reactable, and #Quarto, transforming complex data into beautiful, effective communication. Congrats to all the winners! See the innovation: posit.co/blog/2025-ta...

I've been trying this out recently and it works great! simplifies the JavaScript <-> R communication a lot. I've updated my Shiny+React example app to use this, as another example: github.com/glin/shiny-r... #rstats

yessssss, arm64 linux binaries in posit package manager!! #rstats packagemanager.posit.co/client/#/wha...

More #rstats + OpenTelemetry news: @schloerke.com finally got all of the async issues in {ellmer} and {shiny} sorted out and tracing now works! Here's what combining {shiny} + {ellmer} + {httr2} + {mirai} + {otel} looks like today. (All credit for the screenshots to @schloerke.com.)

reactable now has an AI chatbot for docs, thanks to kapa.ai's open source program: glin.github.io/reactable It's been neat to see it in dplyr, arrow, the Posit docs. also wicked cool that it can index GitHub issues too and dig up answers to old questions that I've long forgotten :D #rstats
