Create reports, apps, dashboards, plots and more that match your company's brand guidelines with a single _brand.yml file.
brand.yml is a simple, portable YAML file that codifies your company's brand guidelines into a format that can be used by Quarto, Python and R tooling to create branded outputs. Our goal is to support unified, branded theming for all of Posit's open source tools—from web applications to printed reports to dashboards and presentations—with a consistent look and feel.
With a single _brand.yml file you can collect brand logos, colors, fonts and typographic choices, typically found in your company's brand guidelines.
This _brand.yml can be used Quarto and Shiny for Python[^1] to instantly basic themes that match the brand guidelines.
