Hello,
Yes, this is possible, and there are a few approaches you might use. Note that
this is not an exhaustive list, there may be other approaches I’m unaware of /
can’t think of at the moment.
• RStudio:
• RStudio Cloud: https://rstudio.cloud/. Depending on student numbers / how
you structure access, could be free or require a premium plan.
https://rstudio.cloud/learn/guide has information on getting started.
• RStudio Server Pro: See https://rstudio.com/pricing/academic-pricing/ for
Academic Pricing, the software is free for teaching purposes, but needs more
setup than RStudio Cloud. https://docs.rstudio.com/ide/server-pro/ has
information on getting started.
• Binder:
• You can use Jupyter+R or RStudio with Binder,
https://github.com/binder-examples/r has some examples for this.
• An alternative approach is using the holepunch package:
https://karthik.github.io/holepunch/index.html
• Depending on how simple the script is (e.g. do you need external data?),
https://rdrr.io/snippets/ might be an option.
• I’ve recently come across COCALC
(https://cocalc.com/doc/r-statistical-software.html) which seems to have offer
a Jupyter interface to R. It appears to have a free tier but I’m not 100% sure
how it works.
Best,
Mine
