Positron Assistant: GitHub Copilot and Claude-Powered Agentic Coding in R
Year: 2025
Type: other
Abstract: Reposted from the original at https://blog.stephenturner.us/p/positron-assistant-copilot-chat-agent I have a little hobby project I'm working on and I wanted to use the opportunity to fully make the switch to Positron from RStudio. I used Positron here and there when it first came out, but now that it's out of beta and has a more complete feature set (like remote SSH sessions!) I have everything I need to switch and not look back.
