Care to expand on how Qt, GWT, pure Javascript mix? I think you guys have really pulled off something great in terms of cross platform support and the web.
Yes, sometimes we call back into native code, especially to do things like file dialogs that you really prefer to be native.

Thanks! We use QtWebkit as the container for our UI. QtWebkit has hooks to let Qt code execute JavaScript in the page, and you can also inject Qt objects into the window object so JS can call into it. GWT's extensible compilation pipeline actually lets us create stub interfaces in GWT that mirror the Qt classes we want to call, and automatically generate the glue code at compile time.
More likely a proxy server issue; make sure any HTTP proxy you use is bypassed for localhost and 127.0.0.1. If that doesn't work, come visit us at http://support.rstudio.org!
Wow... who knew that JJ Allaire, maker of (among other things) the ColdFusion web development system, also liked playing with R? http://www.rstudio.org/docs/about
I'd be curious to hear their calculus for why they thought this services route would be more lucrative than selling the product and services.
It seems like the type of product that people who would balk at purchasing it would be the same type to balkat most types of services listed (except maybe hosting).
In my experience, RKWard frequently crashes when loaded with modest datasets (1700 data points or so for me). I wonder if RStudio has the same memory problems. If not, I'd be willing to give it a shot.
Completely off-topic, but the first thing I thought of when I saw this was R-Studio, an old file/disk recovery software. I was surprised to see that the R IDE has a trademark on "RStudio" (in both US and Canada) given that the former has been around for at least a decade. I guess R-Tools just never cared to file for a TM?
Didn't know anything about R until seeing this post, downloaded the Windows binary and within the hour I was producing graphs. Much easier to get into than MatLab (used it at uni, which is probably why I have an aversion to it!).
Really nice bit of kit (as is the R language), and it's free!
I use MatLab mostly for statistical purposes, together with EViews (statistical software geared towards econometrics). This could certainly ease the transition towards R and replace both aforementioned tools.
Can anyone familiar with writing web servers in C comment on this? For instance, how full featured is it? How useful is the code for learning about web servers?
Cool stuff. But it seems lacking manual to run it.
I would like to see manuals about how to build it, run it at command line and etc.
Better docs can really add a lot attractions.
Anyway, thank you for providing such as beautiful tool. It has been years that R under linux has no such a good IDE.
This looks great. Can't wait to dig into it some more.
Also excited about the timing... next week I'm starting a new position at a research co where most of my colleagues work in SAS (vs. my preference for R).
This may be just the thing to help win some converts :)
I was looking for the Buy button when I saw the link to github.
