how to use R in databricks

Hello everyone.

I am a new user of databricks, they implemented it in the company where I work. I am a business analyst and I know something about R, not much either, when I saw that databricks could use R I was very excited because I thought that the knowledge I had in R, although basic, could support me to start in databricks. Unfortunately, the emotion soon turned into frustration, disappointment and helplessness. I have read a couple of articles to run R on databricks but the attempts I make result in error after error, it seems that nothing I know about Rbase, tidyverse, ggplot2 will work in databricks. That's why I go to the R experts in databricks because I'm already tired of experimenting. If you can support me with resources where I can learn how to use R in databricks, I would greatly appreciate it, preferably in Spanish, but other languages are fine.

I hope that those who learned in R understand my emotions a little and forgive the length of the post, I don't want it to feel like a complaint.

It should be noted that I do not know the Python language, so I was hoping to find a familiar environment so that I would not have to start learning another language and delay my startup process with databrick.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

Hello JCamiloCS, did you get out of it?

We have had the same question, so I just wonder if you find any good guidance?
