R Commander (Rcmdr) is a GUI for the R programming language, licensed under the GNU General Public License, and developed and maintained by John Fox in the sociology department at McMaster University.{{cite journal |last=Fox |first=John |year=2005 |title=The R Commander: A Basic-Statistics Graphical User Interface to R |journal=Journal of Statistical Software |volume=14 |issue=9 |doi= 10.18637/jss.v014.i09|doi-access=free }} Rcmdr looks and works similarly to SPSS GUI by providing a menu of analytic and graphical methods. It also displays the underlying R code that runs each analysis.{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=9kMy0CBTegYC&pg=PA46|title=R for SAS and SPSS Users|last=Muenchen|first=Robert A.|publisher=Springer|year=2011|isbn=978-1-4614-0685-3|location=New York|pages=46–48}}

Rcmdr can be installed from within R, like any R package. Integration with Microsoft Excel is provided by the RExcel package, which also provides an RAndFriendsLight "bundle" graphical installer. R commander is used as a suggested learning environment for a number of R-centric academic statistics books for students and scientists.[http://www.uk.sagepub.com/books/Book236067 Discovering Statistics With R].[https://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4614-1302-8 Biostatistics with R]
