R is (Almost) Platform Independent
I write R scripts on both my laptop and desktop, so the main issue I have is making sure that the R scripts are updated on these devices. There are several ways to ensure this happens:
Use a version control system (on the cloud), e.g Github Write R scripts on an RStudio server, which is accessible on any web browser Transfer files via FTP or using a remote desktop software, such as Teamviewer Which of these methods do I use? Actually, I use all THREE (3) methods to ensure my R scripts are updated.
The first method has an advantage that you can perform a diff of changes made to any file after it is checked in to the cloud, and these changes can be pulled (or merged) from any devices.
