#RStats via Wine on Linux works pretty well and is straightforward to install and run:
$ winecfg /v win11 $ wget https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/R-4.6.0-win.exe $ wine R-4.6.0-win.exe /SILENT $ wine "C:/Program Files/R/R-4.6.0/bin/x64/R.exe" ...
windows()
I've haven't tried Rtools or building R from source, so don't know how well that part works
PS. Mostly used it to run R Windows workers in the background (https://parallelly.futureverse.org/articles/parallelly-22-wine-workers.html)
