Positron IDE is a VS Code fork intended for R language. It feels more modern than R Studio and I was under the impression that it would replace it at some point. That raises two questions: Does GitHub Copilot or your extension works in Positron IDE ?

Right now our assistant is only available in RStudio. We do plan to develop an assistant for Positron-like IDEs in the future though.

Positron is made by Posit, which is formerly the R Studio Company. So I would say its basically the new R Studio.
