ggdc

The goal of ggdc is to provides Datacamp themes for ggplot2, rstudio, and other document formats.

Installation

You can install the package from github using devtools.

devtools::install_github("datacamp/ggdc")

Plotting Theme

ggdc supports two variants of the datacamp theme (light and dark).

Light Theme

library(ggdc)
p <- diamonds %>%
  ggplot(aes(x = carat, y = price, color = cut)) +
  geom_point(alpha = 0.6) +
  labs(
    title = "Price vs. Carat",
    subtitle = "Weightier diamonds are more expensive",
    caption = "Source: Diamonds dataset"
  ) +
  scale_color_datacamp(palette = "accents_light")

p +
  theme_datacamp_light()

Dark Theme

p +
  theme_datacamp_dark()

Logo

You can add a logo to the plot using finalize_plot. You can make this the default for all plots in an Rmd by adding dc_set_chunk_opts(finalize_plot = TRUE) in the setup chunk.

finalize_plot(p + theme_datacamp_dark())

Facets

diamonds %>%
  ggplot(aes(x = price)) +
  geom_histogram() +
  facet_wrap(~cut, scales = "free_y") +
  labs(
    title = "Histogram of Diamonds Prices",
    caption = "Source: ggplot2"
  ) +
  theme_datacamp_light() +
  scale_fill_datacamp()

Rstudio Theme

ggdc also ships with a syntax highlighting theme for RStudio. You can install it by running

install_rstheme()
