Hi, I want to introduce my newest tool - Reshape.XL. Simple add-in for data wrangling in Excel. Tool was strongly inspired by dplyr/tidyr packages in R. Add-in does not require programming and is used through the visual interface. Complicated data processing can be done in few clicks.

I don't modify or close the R. Stagraph and R are independent apps. My app only sending R scripts via R console. Similarly like it is in other commercial apps.

or more broadly Tableau, Spotfire for data visualization and Trifacta for data wrangling

I only know about open source Deducer (http://www.deducer.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.PlotBuilder)

Hi. This project was presented one year ago. But today it is a complete new tool for work with data. Using visual interface you can use R features without coding. Useful for beginners in areas such as data wrangling and data visualizations. Program transforms your actions in interface into R scripts. Now with freemium licensing.

Thank you for all your comments and suggestions. I updated the website.

1) you see date added 2) you can subscribe to future planned "best of the month" newsletter 3) twitter names are fixed 4) rss channels was added

I fix the problem with twitter name. From now your name will be correct. If you want to change name in your previous posts, give me your twitter name and post titles and I fix it.

Good point. Now are dates available if you click on vote/comment link.

Thank you for your suggestion.

1. I plan to improve a number of elements (e.g RSS for tags, newsletter, antispam ...) Current state is something like MVP...

2. Website has no approval mechanism. Your post is visible in five minutes because of website caching.

3. twitter profile name will be fixed

Yes, this I have in plan (e.g. best of week/month). But for this I need enough quality content and users.

My plan is to create a community driven site that collects interesting links in the field of data visualization (maps, tools, libraries, infographics, tutorials, ...).

Currently it is list of interesting links that I found (except 4 links). But for the future, I hope it will be community driven.

Yes. Without any problem. I use this tool at work with > 15 000 point data-set. Only in the case of KML file export (for Google Earth) it may take longer.

Thank you for all the valuable comments and emails. Typo errors I have corrected.

- I think that developing software for “Windows only” is not a mistake. If you make the first version with a small team or in one person, it removes a lot of compatibility issues and problems. If the software will be successful on Windows, it can be extended to other platforms. - "It's hard to compete with R Studio" - yes it is true. Therefore, it is necessary to go a little different path. This will be visible later, after several iterations. It is now difficult to compare the first public version of FasteR with mature R Studio. But competition is always a good think. - "Excel is bad" - According to statistics here is a 750M of Excel users. Every statistician knows about problems of Excel (or all spreadsheet tools). On the other hand, it is standard in a number of areas. If you look around (not only in the community of developers and designers) you will find that with Excel spreadsheets works tremendous amount of companies and institutions, particularly because of its simplicity. For some issues is not sufficient and here is it possible to use for example the integration with FasteR.

Current version of software show you info about licensing options (if you have it without license ID).

399 is for both editions of software for next two years. There are multiple reasons not only two... Mainly the GUI, but this is not in current 0.4.1 version available in the form as I imagine. I only follow the advice: Release something before you are satisfied.

Yes, in the case of fail as startup :)

FasteR is available only for Windows. But for Linux you can use for example R Studio (mature tool compared to FasteR).

Yes you're right. It's the plane.

graphical user interface for selected packages/functions, support for multiple monitors,...
