Have you thought about creating a flow-based GUI, like RapidMiner or Alteryx to use from within Exploratory? I love the power of thinking with R, but I think it would also be really helpful to have a view like this so you can easily break out your analysis into different parts(whether for re-factoring a column, or tidying up variables), and make it really easy to communicate what each part of the flow is trying to accomplish. Let me know your thoughts on this. ---

Yes, we have been thinking about this and did some early prototype. I can’t promise when, but it will come most likely this year. ---

Good news to hear, I’d love to test it out when you have a prototype built. This is a similar project, if you are unfamiliar with it: [http://r.analyticflow.com/en/](http://r.analyticflow.com/en/)
