# R templates

Data Science & AI Workbench provides users with the `R Essentials` bundle. The bundle contains around 80 of the most commonly used packages for data science, including r-base version 3.4.2, caret, dplyr, ggplot2, glmnet, irkernel, rbokeh, shiny, tidyverse, and many more packages!

If you need packages not included in the `R Essentials` bundle, you can [add packages to your projects as described here](../projects/dependencies). You’ll need to connect to a repository containing the packages you require. If you are unable to connect to a repository containing the packages you require, contact your Administrator and request that they [mirror the packages to a channel you can access](../../admin/chan-pkg/mirror).

You can edit R notebooks with any of the editors provided by Workbench: Jupyter Notebooks, JupyterLab, or Apache Zeppelin. To edit notebooks using RStudio, see [adding RStudio to Workbench](../../admin/advanced/rstudio-install).
