The R package RQDA may be one alternative for qualitative researchers who do not have access to, or do not wish to use, proprietary CAQDAS software. RQDA allows the user to import text files, create codes and file categories and to visualise file categories with sociograms.
It’s also possible to run the package from the command line and to export RQDA data to LaTeX.
