Brand YML is a specification for consistent color, typography and logos and Quarto already implements it for HTML and Typst formats, with SCSS layering for HTML and a Typst CSS layer that maps CSS properties to Typst. Quarto 1.8 adds paired light and dark brands and a cell option to render first light then dark; Quarto 1.7 implements respect user color scheme. Matplotlib, Altair and Plotly outputs follow background and foreground colors via glue code in quarto, quarto-python, quarto-r and brand-yml, and the demos show plots switching correctly.
