StatET for R is an integrated development environment that adds comprehensive support for R programming to the Eclipse IDE.
It is intended for developers, statisticians and researchers who prefer working within Eclipse rather than using a separate R-specific application. The environment brings together source editing, interactive execution, debugging, graphics and tools for inspecting objects during statistical analysis.
StatET is also suitable for maintaining larger R projects and developing packages. Its integration with the Eclipse workspace provides access to familiar project navigation and development facilities.
The application supports local and remote R installations, making it possible to work with different execution environments from a single development interface.
This is free and open source software.
