The default appearance of ggplot2 graphics is unattractive. Tick marks
point outward (away from the data). Grid lines are provided (are we in
jail?). Borders are black (taking focus away from the data). The
background color is gray, not white.
This package (MKHthemes) provides a nice-looking theme for ggplot2
graphs, solving the problems identified above.
You can install MKHthemes from GitHub with:
# install devtools if not already installed
# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("MatthewHeun/MKHthemes")
# To build vignettes locally, use
devtools::install_github("MatthewHeun/MKHthemes", build_vignettes = TRUE)Find more information, including vignettes and function documentation, at https://MatthewHeun.github.io/MKHthemes/.
