The latest release of #Positron went out last week, and I am so pleased to share what's in it! 🥳
Some big features we've been working on for a while (the editor for `.ipynb` notebooks, the Packages pane, Posit Assistant) all came out of preview this month:

Curious what Julia coders think of the 1.0 Pluto release. I've tried it in the past and compared it against vscode and #Positron. The long and short of it was that each felt incomplete in one way or another. Hoping to see Positron and Pluto keep maturing for Julia, though it seems that path is on hold for Positron at the moment.

Hm OK I just noticed the automatic git blame displayed in the status bar of Positron for wherever your cursor is. That's pretty cool.

Is someone else having issues with #Positron using remote SSH? My #RStats sessions take FOR EVER to startup and the console has enormous latency and sometimes it just completely locks up and I need to close the whole session, sometimes even restart Positron completely.
Meanwhile, using R from the terminal via SSH works perfectly well. And VSCode using the normal R terminal also is working well. -

Hard to really appreciate what RStudio does for R until you step outside of it. Positron is nice too, but still feels second-best. One can hope that #julialang and #rstats devs get together to make Julia a 1st class #Positron citizen. I’d make the switch permanently. #RCall #JuliaCall

Positron 2026.03.0 is out — and it’s getting seriously good for real data workflows.
✨ Reliable step-by-step execution in R (finally!)
📄 Built-in PDF viewer (no more context switching)
📓 Notebook editor evolving: interactive data grids, better cell control, Jupyter-like UXThis is moving beyond “just an IDE” → toward an integrated data + analysis environment.

Panache, a language server, formatter, and linter for #Pandoc, #Quarto and #R #Markdown files is now also available for #VScode and related editors like #positron See https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=jolars.panache or https://open-vsx.org/extension/jolars/panache.
Since I last posted about #Panache, it has also grown considerably, now featuring full-fledged bibliography management for Quarto projects, table formatting, code chunk formatting, and various LSP features.

Nice integrated PDF viewer in the latest version of #Positron from @[email protected]! Now expand this to image files, too :-)

For over a month I have been using #positron. In most cases it is pretty much living the dream of working with R and Python from the same directory simultaneously! I like how it handles Git. I also now have the full universe of VS Code extensions available! There are some little things that Rstudio still handles better. For example, some piped tidyverse code does not carry indents to the next line correctly for some reason. It can be used to develop shiny apps honestly easier than Rstudio, but it doesn't have the convenient shinyapps.io publishing GUI (I think?). I haven't done rMarkdown work with it yet, so I can't say whether they've achieved feature parity there. But it sure is convenient being able to work in both languages from one IDE!

Changed to ragg in RStudio and printed a 1080x720 png of the same plot in RStudio and Positron. They were both “not great” on my machine. Changed both to cairo via option(device=‘cairo’). Printed the same pngs. Much better. #Rstats #Positron

Could we get that #julialang thang for #positron already? I just want to experience it in a warm, comfortable space that I’m familiar with, and that has a better DS-vibe than standard VS Code.
