## Overview

**duke** allows users to generate visualizations with Duke's official suite of colors in a color blind friendly way. By using it alongside **ggplot2**, you can easily promote accessibility in the Duke community and beyond. 

## Installation

You can install the official version of `duke` from CRAN with:

``` r

# Install duke directly:

install.packages("duke")

```

Or alternatively, you can install the development version from GitHub:

``` r

# install.packages("devtools")

devtools::install_github("aidangildea/duke")

```

## Usage

This package is fully integrated with ggplot2, and therefore, allows you to customize several visualization features such as the theme and color scales of your plots created with ggplot2.

## Example

By using **duke** functions, you can easily convert your visualizations to Duke official colors.

```{r plot}

library(ggplot2)

library(duke)

plot1 <- ggplot(mpg, aes(cty, hwy)) +

  geom_point(aes(colour = fl)) +

  labs(

    title = "City Miles per Gallon vs. Highway Miles per Gallon By Fuel Type",

    caption = "Data sourced from mpg in ggplot2 package.",

    x = "City Miles per Gallon (MPG)", 

    y = "Highway Miles per Gallon (MPG)"

  )

plot2 <- ggplot(mpg, aes(cty, hwy)) +

  geom_point(aes(color = cyl)) +

  labs(

    title = "City Miles per Gallon vs. Highway Miles per Gallon By Cylinders", 

    caption = "Data sourced from mpg in ggplot2 package.", 

    x = "City Miles per Gallon (MPG)", 

    y = "Highway Miles per Gallon (MPG)"

  )

```

Then, by pairing them with functions from this package, you can convert them into Duke-branded and colorblind-friendly versions.

```{r themeduke, message = FALSE}

plot1 +

  theme_duke() +

  scale_duke_color_discrete()

plot2 +

  theme_duke() +

  scale_duke_continuous()

```
