Style Extensions

Starplot has many built-in style extensions for different color schemes, plot types, and gradient backgrounds.

Using them is pretty simple:

from starplot import styles

style = styles.PlotStyle().extend(
    styles.extensions.BLUE_GOLD,
    styles.extensions.GRADIENT_PRE_DAWN,
)
