About benviplot

A Brazilian housing-data palette package went from internal tooling to public 1.0 in five days.

benviplot supplies color palettes, ggplot2 scales, themes and plot helpers for charts in a consistent house style, oriented around Brazilian urban and rental-market data. The entire public history is compressed into early October 2025: a six-phase release plan took it from removing proprietary data through modernization, testing, vignettes, documentation and CI to a stable 1.0.0. The shipped package carries 36 curated palettes, discrete and continuous scale functions, and a rental price index dataset covering six Brazilian cities.
