tinythemes 0.0.3 at CRAN: Nags

A second maintenance release of our still young-ish package tinythemes arrived on CRAN today. tinythemes provides the theme_ipsum_rc() function from hrbrthemes by Bob Rudis in a zero (added) dependency way. A simple example is (also available as a demo inside the package) contrasts the default style (on the left) with the one added by this package (on the right):

This version responds solely to things CRAN now nags about. As these are all package quality improvement we generally oblige happily (and generally fix in the respective package repo when we notice). I am currently on a quest to get most/all of my nags down so new releases are sometimes the way to go even when not under a ‘deadline’ gun (as with other releases this week).

The full set of changes since the last release (a little over a year ago) follows.

Changes in tinythemes version 0.0.3 (2025-03-29)

• Updated a badge URL in README.md

• Updated manual pages with proper anchor links

• Rewrote one example without pipe to not require minimum R version

Courtesy of my CRANberries, there is a diffstat report relative to previous release. More detailed information is on the repo where comments and suggestions are welcome.

tinythemes 0.0.2 at CRAN: Maintenance

A first maintenance of the still fairly new package tinythemes arrived on CRAN today. tinythemes provides the theme_ipsum_rc() function from hrbrthemes by Bob Rudis in a zero (added) dependency way. A simple example is (also available as a demo inside the package) contrasts the default style (on left) with the one added by this package (on the right):

This version mostly just updates to the newest releases of ggplot2 as one must, and takes advantage of Bob’s update to hrbrthemes yesterday.

The full set of changes since the initial CRAN release follows.

Changes in spdl version 0.0.2 (2024-03-04)

• Added continuous integrations action based on r2u

• Added demo/ directory and a READNE.md

• Minor edits to help page content

• Synchronised with ggplot2 3.5.0 via hrbrthemes

tinythemes 0.0.1 at CRAN: New Package

Delighted to announce a new package that arrived on CRAN today: tinythemes. It repackages the theme_ipsum_rc() function by Bob Rudis from his hrbrthemes package in a zero (added) dependency way. A simple example is (also available as a demo inside the packages in the next update) contrasts the default style (on left) with the one added by this package (on the right):

The GitHub repo also shows this little example: total dependencies of hrbrthemes over what ggplot2 installs:

> db <- tools::CRAN_package_db()
> deps <- tools::package_dependencies(c("ggplot2", "hrbrthemes"), recursive=TRUE, db=db
> Filter(\(x) x != "ggplot2", setdiff(deps[[2]], deps[[1]]))
