## What it is
hrbrthemes is an R package providing opinionated, typography-centric ggplot2 themes and theme components, including the theme_ipsum family and matching color/axis scales. It focuses on making ggplot2 charts look polished with sensible fonts and label formatting out of the box.

## Use cases
- style ggplot2 charts with clean typography
- apply consistent fonts to R data visualizations
- get dark themes for ggplot2 plots
- format axis labels as percentages or comma values
- match color palettes to plot themes in R
- make publication-ready charts in R

## When to choose
- you use ggplot2 and want attractive, opinionated default themes
- you need typography-focused chart styling in R
- you want matching color scales and axis label formatting

## When to avoid
- you don't use R or ggplot2
- you need fully customizable, neutral theming rather than opinionated defaults
- you require specific fonts not offered by the ipsum family

## Facets
- artifact type: library
