Hey HN,<p>We often use R and AWS, but felt limited in our ability to use them together. While AWS provides SDKs for many languages, R is not one of them. This led us to ask: how hard could it be to build an R SDK ourselves?<p>It turns out that it was harder than we thought, but our work has culminated in the creation of Paws - a Package for AWS. By using the existing Go and JavaScript SDKs as a guide, we developed Paws to provide users with packages for over 100 services that can be run in R. We have examples for a few of these.<p>We wrote Paws fully in R, with the hope that other members of the R community will feel comfortable submitting issues or contributing merge requests.<p>Thank you for checking out our work!
