The BlueGranite blog recently featured a post I wrote about R Tools for Visual Studio. It’s not meant to be an in-depth exploration into RTVS. Rather, at a high level, it takes a very basic look at some reasons why a developer may choose to use RTVS either in conjunction with or in lieu of R Studio.

Essentially, I was asked to consider if R Tools for Visual Studio is something that we can incorporate as a tool for client solutions, when it would it be applicable or useful, whether it is something we would recommend, etc.
