Persistent Julia engine for chunk evaluation #1798

strongly second this. Julia is going to be incredibly important to the numerical computing community in years to come, and already has a vibrant, friendly community. would be great to be able to work in Rmd with seamless exchange between R and Julia, and be able to seamlessly import julia functions into R scripts a la reticulate and python. |

Doesn't RStudio use Ace for syntax highlighting? I'm pretty sure they already have syntax highlighting for Julia. Even that would be nice. |

strongly second this. |

This doesn't appear to be a high priority RStudio team at the moment so people might want to look to https://github.com/julia-vscode/julia-vscode instead. |
|
How hard would it be to code an add-in to RStudio that adds Julia syntax highlighting ? (I genuinely don't know, if someone points me in the right direction I'm happy to give it a try) |

I also want to see support for Julia in RStudio.

We could probably use https://github.com/stefan-m-lenz/JuliaConnectoR to support this. We could even rely on a knitr engine implementation using that package. |

(Julia version of #1651)
knitr will soon support Julia chunks with JuliaCall package. I don't have strong opinion on the support for Julia, but it would be useful if we can use Julia in RStudio seamlessly as well as Python.
