Posit offers something similar to Microsoft’s CRAN Time Machine, but it works not only for CRAN, but also for Bioconductor and PyPI. You can add a date to the Public Posit Package Manager URL to access a snapshot of all packages from that day.
For example:
https://packagemanager.posit.co/cran/2025-03-02 https://packagemanager.posit.co/cran/2025-03-02
You can browse available snapshot dates here:
https://packagemanager.posit.co/client/#/repos/cran/setup?snapshot=2025-03-02 https://packagemanager.posit.co/client/#/repos/cran/setup?sn...
This also works for PyPI and Python packages:
