title: 'hexmakR: Editable Hex Stickers and Project Logos'
version: 0.4.1
abstract: Create publication-ready hexagon stickers for R packages interactively via
  a 'shiny' app or programmatically via R functions. Complements the 'hexSticker'
  package (which embeds R plots into stickers) by providing an interactive visual
  designer with 28 curated colour themes (dark and light variants, led by the nine
  families of the Computational Trauma and Tissue Injury Research (CTTIR) design,
  version 5 (CTTIR v5)), 46 built-in scientific and technical icons, custom image
  upload support, font selection, and export to transparent PNG. Designed for the
  R package ecosystem with presets for CRAN, Bioconductor, Tidyverse, and domain-specific
  colour palettes. Includes the CTTIR v5 library of 45 native R vector identities,
  editable shapes, reproducible JSON projects, and transparent PNG, SVG and PDF export
  with package names inside the hexagon. Project logos also support pentagonal and
  square frames.
