💻 RStudio addins now run in Positron through the command palette, including the addins from my annotater package (despite relying heavily on the rstudioapi pkg for modifying open files!)
Nice!

Do you love seeing how people are **actually **using data science tools?
Join us with @kylieainslie.bsky.social and @chendaniely.bsky.social tomorrow for a Community Project Showcase. Ask questions about their thought process, code organization, or whatever you want to know about!

In May, 40 of the 323 new CRAN packages had no README file, no vignettes, and no URL linking to a repository 🤔
This RStudio "What's New" window is neat!!
A lot of care (and coffee) went into crafting this month's newsletter. I hope you find it valuable 🥰
Skills, skills, skills... everyone's talking about them, but what IS a skill? 😅
Let's find out - join my "Skills 101" session at GenAI in Pharma Day 2026!

🙋 What would you like to know, or what did you *wish* you had known when you started?
When I was at PyCon US, there was so! much! buzz! around @pola.rs.
For those of us who work primarily in the latter part of the data science lifecycle (reporting, etc.), I wrote a little blog post on four #Python libraries with Polars support.
Check it out here! opensource.posit.co/blog/2026-06...
Want to programmatically build presentation slides with #Python? Meet Quarto!
We wrote a lil post on how to use Quarto to combine your code, text, output into beautiful slides, perfect for @scipyconf.bsky.social or your next conference 😊

That nice-looking plot might be R, Python, Typst... or even, SQL!?
Join us tomorrow with @thomasp85.com , where he will introduce ggsql, a new package that brings the grammar of graphics (a framework for composing plots) to SQL.

Reproduction with #Typst -> Done (still some work to do on Gribouille obviously) 😎

Posit's Python libraries provide excellent support for Polars DataFrames across your data science workflow.
CRAN continues to be the most accessible repository for statistical knowledge on the planet, and the number of new packages being accepted by CRAN is growing faster than ever. But, is the #RStats community benefiting from this new growth?
@revojoe.bsky.social explores: rworks.dev/posts/too-ma...
Kickstarting June the only way we know how: with incredible open-source updates. We're excited to share recent #RStats and #Python updates to make your life easier, from mirai, mori, Shiny, Quarto, to events and resources, and more.
