Colorblind friendly palette taken originally described by Okabe and Ito (2008). The original palette has been modified slightly to make the yellow more visible on a white background, as described by Lüdecke et al. (2021). The palette also includes color scales that can be used in place of ggplot2::scale_color_discrete() or ggplot2::scale_fill_discrete().

Usage

palette_okabeito

Format

A character vector of 8 hex color codes.
