Thanks for the App Request!

I'm currently working on getting to all the requests, however, if you'd like help push things along feel free to add context based on the App Request Template

name: RStudio Request
about: RStudio (a powerful GUI for R, pretty used in datascience alongside Python librairies)

labels: RStudio App Request
assignees:

RStudio
RStudio is an open-source GUI/IDE for R (also Markdown, Python and other things).
It is a standard application in the DataScience world (alongside Python and its dedicated librairies of course)
The more important focus now should be on the GUI/IDE RStudio (the RStudio company handles also RStudio Servers, Shiny Servers and various custom packages for R)

Reference website : https://rstudio.com

Proposed App Status
Not sure at all

Related Issue Tracker Link or discussion
I found this test to run RStudio on a RaspberryPi (then using the ARM compilation).
However it seems slow and difficult to handle with newer version of the software

Apparently R developers are working on the issue:

https://developer.r-project.org/Blog/public/2020/11/02/will-r-work-on-apple-silicon/

But I suppose, since that blog post a FORTRAN compiler came out

Still there is no solution yet, but there are lots of posts on the topic

Here's the status we'll use:

✳️ Runs via Rosetta with native support currently in development

This is ready to go.

Feel free to make a pull request using the App Addition Template otherwise I'll add it when time permits.

Here's the status we'll use:

✳️ Runs via Rosetta with native support currently in development

Does it? Based on the comments and the info I've found in the links above it seem that it does not work yet. And even if RStudio works, R might not....

[ThatGuySam]

Perhaps I am mistaken.

The R Project article states:

The new platform will include Rosetta 2, a dynamic translation framework which runs binaries built for 64-bit Intel Macs using just-in-time, dynamic translation of binary code. The good news is that R seems to be working fine with the dynamic translation

I assumed that meant it works via Rosetta.

Are there user reports of issues on Rosetta?

I can't seem to find anything like that in the articles above, however, I may have missed something.
