Overview

About

Maintained by Mathias Sablé-MeyerFirst published 2026-05-291 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Provides discrete and continuous color palettes derived from the album cover artwork of each Taylor Swift Era. Each palette ships with a curated order-of-use so that smaller discrete subsets remain harmonious, and supports continuous interpolation via 'grDevices::colorRampPalette()' for arbitrary 'n'. Designed to plug into 'ggplot2' workflows through standard manual and gradient scales.
