Description

From npr: "I think https://arrow.apache.org/docs/r/articles/install.html would benefit from a very simple summary at the top: install.packages("arrow") just works; there are things you can do to make it install faster (see below); if for some reason it doesn't work, set the env var ARROW_R_DEV=true, retry, and share the logs with us."
