90+
91+ [ Positron] ( https://positron.posit.co/ ) is an IDE for data science based on
92+ Code OSS, which has deep integration with R.
93+ Positron does not have an extension like Visual Studio Code's Dev Containers extension,
94+ so it cannot control Dev Containers from Positron, and it requires to use
95+ [ Remote SSH] ( https://positron.posit.co/remote-ssh.html ) to connect to the container.
96+
97+ The easiest way to connect to a container with Positron is to create a Dev Container
98+ with [ DevPod] ( https://devpod.sh/ ) , which has Positron support and automatically
99+ creates the container and connects to it from Positron.
