MRAN doesn't seem to be very well known or used in the R community, but I don't really know why?
Separately, Nix https://nixos.org/ also solves this problem for lots of different languages, but is difficult to get started with and still a bit rough around the edges. Probably not a good recommendation for a typical analyst or academic at this point.
