R? In the browser? What?!

#WebR makes it possible to run #RStats code in the browser without the need for an R server to execute the code: the R interpreter runs directly on the user’s machine. WebR is a version of the statistical language R compiled for the browser and #NodeJS using #WebAssembly, via Emscripten.

How do you get started with installing and loading #RStats packages with #webR?

WebR makes it possible to run R code in the browser without the need for an R server to execute the code. But just running R isn't enough, you need the R packages you use every day too.

webR 0.2.0 makes many new packages available (10,324 packages - about 51% of CRAN!), and it's now possible to run #Shiny apps under webR, entirely client side.
