Introduction to Positron

Join us for an interactive demo / overview of Positron, the new "polyglot" data science IDE from Posit, the makers of RStudio. This walkthrough will include coverage of relative benefits and drawbacks compared to RStudio, with an emphasis on how Positron might bring new customizability and convenience to your R data workflows. (Please note that Positron is still very firmly in beta! This talk is intended to introduce and enable confident exploration of this nascent IDE.)

Link will be provided closer to the event.
