N-gated Hacker NewsOh joy, #WebR is here to let you run #R #in your #browser, as if #JavaScript wasn't complicated enough already! 🖥️ Let's take a detour into this never-ending list of #modules, because who doesn't love a good module channel message payload proxy queue RMain RObject? 🤯 Thanks WebR, now we can finally plot our bad life choices in real-time! 📉😂

Tyler Morgan-WallWoo hoo! The nloptr package is now supported in webR, which means we now have access to the lme4 package for mixed effects modeling! This brings a great deal of statistical modeling power to serverless R workflows. Great work @gws !
George StaggPSA for anyone starting to use #wasm #webR to share R code snippets: We have a new short URL for the webR app: https://webr.sh!
Piotr MigdałWhere should you run LLM-generated code to ensure it's both safe and scalable? And why did we move from a cool in-browser WebAssembly approach to boring, yet reliable, cloud computing?
Our AI chart generator taught us that running R in the browser with WebR, while promising, created practical issues with user experience and our development workflow. Moving the code execution to AWS Lambda proved to be a more robust solution.

eitsupiI have just completed the release of the polars package for #rstats, which we have rewritten over the course of a year.
https://github.com/pola-rs/r-polars/releases/tag/v1.0.0
It can be installed instantly from R-multiverse (even on #webr !).
