Posit frames its mission around open source tools and reports concrete progress: since 2019 over 300 people gain internal access to Posit Workbench, and commercial integrations now simplify enterprise workflows. New features include Quarto dashboards for card-based layouts, Typst PDFs as a faster alternative to LaTeX, and Quarto Live (released last week) which embeds runnable, graded exercises via WebAssembly. Browser R via webR/Shinylive runs R in-page, and integrations with Databricks and Snowflake add marketplace deployment and native per-user authentication plus helper functions like databricks() and snowflake().
