rip (if I got the tool right) is a CLI package installer. uvr is so much more. It basically allows version control of packages and R version with a lock file. it's meant to feel and act very similarly to uv in Python. A closer tool would be renv but it is meant to do much more that other tools available. If you check the link, there's a page describing in more details all of this!
