Posit is a 15‑year public benefit corporation that pushes a code‑first approach, maintaining hundreds of open‑source packages and the RStudio IDE while adding Python tooling (quarto, shiny for Python, great‑tables). Released sparklyr in 2016 and by the end of last year added Spark Connect support, Unity Catalog integration and user‑defined function support so R users can run on Databricks clusters without JVM installs.
