# Neo Brutalist

export const GraphEmbed = ({src, story, aspectRatio, borderRadius = '14px', args}) => {
  const STORYBOOK_BASE_URL = typeof window !== 'undefined' && window.location.hostname === 'localhost' ? 'http://localhost:6006' : 'https://storybook-sdk.vercel.app';
  function buildArgsString(args) {
    if (!args) return '';
    const encodeValue = value => {
      if (value === null) return '!null';
      if (value === undefined) return '!undefined';

    const properties = Object.entries(args).map(([key, value]) => `${key}:${encodeValue(value)}`).join(';');
    return `&args=${properties}`;
  }
  const resolvedSrc = story ? `${STORYBOOK_BASE_URL}/iframe.html?id=${story}&viewMode=story&embed=1&globals=mode:readonly${buildArgsString(args)}` : src;
  const resolvedAspectRatio = aspectRatio ?? (story ? '16 / 9' : '10 / 6');
  return <iframe src={resolvedSrc} loading="lazy" allowfullscreen="true" style={{

    aspectRatio: resolvedAspectRatio,

    borderRadius,
    colorScheme: 'light'
  }} />;
};

Neo Brutalist draws graphs as blunt blocks: a cream sheet in a thick black border, square shapes in loud flat color outlined in black, and a solid black shadow under everything that stands off the sheet.

<Warning>
  Neo Brutalist ships as its own package, `@graphysdk/theme-neo-brutalist`,
  still on `0.x`. A minor release may change its look, so pin a caret range
  (`^0.1.0`) to take only patches. Tell us what works and what doesn't on
  [Discord](https://discord.gg/yGmYCjkSr).
</Warning>

<GraphEmbed story="themes-neo-brutalist--chart" args={{ chart: 'bar' }} aspectRatio="4 / 3" borderRadius="0" />

## Install

```bash theme={null}
npm install @graphysdk/theme-neo-brutalist
```

Its peer dependencies are `@graphysdk/react` and React 19. Pass the theme to `createGraphyKit` and import its fonts once:

```tsx theme={null}
import { createGraphyKit, GraphRenderer } from '@graphysdk/react';
import { neoBrutalist } from '@graphysdk/theme-neo-brutalist';
import '@graphysdk/theme-neo-brutalist/fonts.css';

const kit = createGraphyKit({ theme: neoBrutalist });
```

Every graph drawn through `kit.GraphProvider` takes the theme. The spec is written as usual and names no theme:

```tsx theme={null}
const spec = kit.pipe(
  kit.createSpec({ x: 'quarter', y: 'revenue', color: 'region' }),
  kit.geom.bar({ position: 'dodge' }),
  kit.scale.x(),
  kit.scale.y()
);

<kit.GraphProvider spec={spec} data={data}>
  <GraphRenderer />
</kit.GraphProvider>;
```

Without a kit, pass the theme to the provider instead: `<GraphProvider theme={neoBrutalist}>`.

The provider reads the theme once, when it mounts. To switch themes, remount the provider, for example with a React `key`.

## What the theme decides

| Part | What Neo Brutalist sets |
| - | - |
| Stylesheet | A cream sheet in a thick black border, square shapes outlined in black, a solid black shadow under the graph and its shapes, headings in capitals |
| Colors | Pink, purple and lime first, then orange, blue, teal and green, for groups, and a ramp from a pale yellow through pink to a deep purple |
| Config | Values on the left, the legend above the plot |
| Geoms | None repainted |
| Color scheme | Light, whatever `colorScheme` the provider is given |

<GraphEmbed story="themes-neo-brutalist--chart" args={{ chart: 'line' }} aspectRatio="4 / 3" borderRadius="0" />

## The shadow

The graph's own shadow falls outside its frame, to the right and below. Leave room for it around the renderer, or whatever holds the graph cuts it off.

## Changing the look of one graph

A spec's own `styles()`, scales and `config()` sit above the theme. This graph keeps the blocks and draws its groups in pink and black:

```tsx theme={null}
kit.pipe(spec, kit.scale.color.discrete({ range: ['#FF3D8B', '#111111'] }));
```

The theme is drawn for a graph about 600 pixels wide. `style.graph({ textScale })` scales its type for a larger or smaller one.

## With a geom package

Neo Brutalist repaints no geom. A geom from a package, such as the [dumbbell](/sdk-next/graph-types/dumbbell), is drawn in the theme's colors and type like a built-in one.

```tsx theme={null}
import { dumbbell } from '@graphysdk/geom-dumbbell';

const kit = createGraphyKit({ theme: neoBrutalist, plugins: [dumbbell] });
```

## Fonts

`fonts.css` loads Space Grotesk from Google Fonts, in weights 500 and 700. To host the font yourself, leave the import out and load a family named `Space Grotesk` before the first graph is drawn.
