install the R extension from the marketplace ( R - Visual Studio Marketplace). Optional: You can install a better terminal alternative like radian, a debugger and a better plot-viewer like httpgd because the builtin plot-viewer for VSCode isn’t a particularly good one. You can now start working with code but there are potentially times you could run into errors while running your code. Some simple shortcuts like the pipe operator doesn’t work out of the box, so adding a shortcut for “%>%” or “|>” depending on your preference can be done using the following method: To eliminate any potential errors/code not work, you must make sure the R path is specified in the VSCode preferences (cmd+shift+p on mac) and search for R path.įinding the path is simple, open R and type:Īnother somewhat major tweak you would want to do to the editor: Working with R is very similar to a regular RStudio IDE R-extension provides the same support for installing packages, plots and plot viewer, global environment, datasets, plots, lists, variables, checking loaded packages etc. Terminal and console position can be modified to make get the input and output panes next to each other, something you cannot do well in R-Studio. So VSCode feels very familiar and running code is highly intuitive.
