If you haven't seen them yet, you can find the R Dev Container Docs online.
This index links to underlying markdown files for key sections of the docs, so you can preview them right here in VS Code.
The links below give more information on using the container via GitHub Codespaces or Gitpod Workspaces. Take a moment to review how to stop and restart your container, so you can continue your work. If you are collaborating with others, you may want to use Live Share so that you can share the same workspace.
Learn how to use the container with these mini tutorials. If you have used R in VSCode before, you can skip Tutorial 1. Tutorials 2 and 3 are the minimum to get started with R development. You can run through these in about 30 minutes. You can refer to the remaining sections as needed!
