The idea of this package is to create a collection of themes for Makie to customize

the size and look of plot elements and colors. It will initially focus on porting

themes from existing plotting packages.

Currently, we provide the following libraries:

- `GGThemr` - inspired by [ggthemr](https://github.com/cttobin/ggthemr), a R library for ggplot themes.

- `BBC` - emulating the BBC's plot style, found in [bbplot](https://github.com/bbc/bbplot).

We do plan to add more themes, and PRs are welcome!

Here's the current default look of Makie:

```julia

using Makie, MakieThemes

Makie.demoscatter()

```



Using the `:fresh` theme from `GGThemr`;

```julia

using MakieThemes

MakieThemes.demoscatter(theme_ggthemr(:fresh))

```



Here's an expanded visualization based on the examples in the source theme:

Code

```julia

using CSV, DataFrames, MakieThemes, Makie, AlgebraOfGraphics

for dataset ∈ (:www, :drivers, :mtcars, :diamonds)

  @eval $(dataset) = CSV.read(dirname(pathof(MakieThemes))*"/../data/"*$(string(dataset))*".tsv", delim = '\t', DataFrame)

end

Makie.set_theme!(ggthemr(:fresh))

fig = Figure()

www_plot = data(www) * mapping(:Minute, :Users, color = :Measure) * (visual(Lines) + visual(Scatter) * mapping(marker = :Measure))

www_grid = draw!(fig[1, 1], www_plot)

legend!(fig[1, 1, Top()], www_grid; orientation = :horizontal, titleposition = :left)

mtcars_plot = data(mtcars) * mapping(:mpg, color = :cyl => nonnumeric) * AlgebraOfGraphics.density()

mtcars_grid = draw!(fig[1, 2], mtcars_plot)

legend!(fig[1, 2, Top()], mtcars_grid; orientation = :horizontal, titleposition = :left)

diamonds_plot = data(diamonds) * mapping(:price, color = :cut, stack = :cut) * AlgebraOfGraphics.histogram()

draw!(fig[2, 1], diamonds_plot; axis = (xtickformat = x -> string.(round.(Int, x)),))

drivers_plot = data(drivers) * mapping(:Year, :Deaths) * visual(BoxPlot)

draw!(fig[2, 2], drivers_plot)

fig

```



This is the target theme I'm aiming for (image created with R)



## Color v/s style themes

In MakieThemes, we try to maintain a separation between _color_ themes (dark v/s light theme, background colors, palettes, etc) and _style_ themes (fonts, grid styles, title alignments, etc).  This provides a lot of flexibility - you might

- [ ] axis line thickness

- [ ] the period of the dashed line
