Brand.yml

What it is

Brand.yml lets you create a single file that captures your brand guidelines—colors, typography, logos—and automatically applies them across Shiny apps and Quarto documents. Non-developers can define their brand once and have it consistently show up in dashboards, reports, and presentations without touching code. It's a central source of truth for visual identity that works with tools designers and marketers already use.

• Automatically applies your branding to Shiny web apps and Quarto documents
• Supports light and dark mode variants for colors and logos
• Integrates with Google Fonts and custom typography
• Works across HTML reports, dashboards, slides, and PDFs

Use it when

• You're setting up brand guidelines for a team's reports and dashboards
• You need consistent colors and fonts across multiple documents without manual styling
• You're creating Shiny apps or Quarto reports and want them to match your brand
