Install: quarto add seandavi/quarto-livefigures@v0.2.0

  • New backend: Vega-Lite / Vega (.vl.json, .vg.json) — headless, dedicated bundled renderer (ADR 0010); chosen over draw.io for agentic-editing workflows.
  • Chart PDFs are deterministic across machines: shared rasterizer with bundled Liberation Sans, no system fonts.
  • theme=auto no longer CSS-inverts charts (data colors stay faithful); explicit theme=dark uses the vega dark theme. Excalidraw behavior unchanged.
  • Cache keys include the backend; upgrading invalidates caches as designed.
