thematic: simplified theming for ggplot2, lattice, and base R graphics

Not yet on CRAN, but install it now with:

remotes::install_github("rstudio/thematic")
library(thematic)

For auto-theming in shiny, you'll currently need:

remotes::install_github("rstudio/shiny")

For auto-theming in rmarkdown, you'll currently need:

remotes::install_github("rstudio/rmarkdown#1706")

Summary

  • Call thematic_on() to make your R plots CSS/theme aware in shiny, rmarkdown, and RStudio! 🎉

  • If auto-theming doesn't work for you, provide colors & fonts to thematic_on()

    • Any Google Font works "out-of-the-box" (no install needed)
