Theming Made Easy: Introducing brand.yml
summary
A portable YAML schema called brand.yml encodes metadata, palettes, typography and logo assets so the same brand rules style Shiny apps and Quarto reports in R and Python; supporting tools include the bslib theme engine and R/Python packages that read the YAML and apply colors, fonts and images. The project ships an editor app to preview results, and the demo shows dropping brand.yml next to an app or report produces a polished UI without hours of CSS tinkering.
