The worlds smallest R environment? Running R on a $15 computer
summary
Project packages prebuilt R binaries and a CRAN-like repo at R4Pi.org so R installs on Raspberry Pis skip slow source builds and instead install ~250-300 packages as binaries. It runs on tiny hardware like the Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W (512 MB, 1 GHz) and full Pi 4s, supports VS Code with the R extension, and serves a Shiny app on the local network reliably; demonstrations show install, plotting with ggplot2, and a networked Shiny instance working as expected.
