- The Terminal tab, giving access to a shell directly within the IDE,
- The Object Explorer, for inspecting deeply-nested R objects,
- The modern theme, including a dark IDE theme to accompany the dark editor themes,
- The Connections tab, for managing connections to external SQL data stores,
- Improvements to Git integration, making it easier to manage
gitbranches from within the IDE, alongside a small set of other miscellaneous features that made their way into the v1.1.
