# soilpalettes

[![DOI](https://zenodo.org/badge/257353182.svg)](https://zenodo.org/badge/latestdoi/257353182)

[![R build

status](https://github.com/kaizadp/soilpalettes/workflows/R-CMD-check/badge.svg)](https://github.com/kaizadp/soilpalettes/actions)

This package contains color palettes for RStudio, inspired by soil

profiles. Palettes are colorblind-friendly and were created using

[Chroma.js](https://gka.github.io/palettes/) and

[Coolors](https://coolors.co).

Source images and color hex values can be found in the

[`images.md`](https://github.com/kaizadp/soilpalettes/blob/master/images.md)

file in the root directory.
