⁠RCloud: Integrated Exploratory Analysis, Visualization, and Deployment on the Web

RCloud⁠ is an environment for collaboratively creating and sharing data analysis scripts. RCloud lets you mix analysis code in R, HTML5, Markdown, Python, and others. Much like Jupyter notebooks⁠, Beaker notebook⁠, Apache Zeppelin⁠, Sage⁠, and Mathematica⁠, RCloud provides a notebook interface that lets you easily record a session and annotate it with text, equations, and supporting images.

Unlike these other systems, RCloud:

• lets you easily browse and search other users's notebooks. You can comment on notebooks, fork them, star them, and use them as function calls in your own notebooks.

• lets you interpret notebooks as web services: your exploratory data analysis are one step away from an automated dashboard.

• provides an environment in which R packages can create rich HTML content (using, for example, d3⁠ and dc.js⁠).

• provides a transparent, integrated version control system. In essence, RCloud never forgets what you did. If you need low-level access to RCloud notebooks, you can simply clone the associated git repository. This is because RCloud notebooks are Github gists⁠

Interested? Try RCloud on the public instance on rcloud.social⁠, or install the Docker image⁠.
