mascot: Live Mood-Driven Mascots for 'Shiny' Apps and 'Quarto' Sites
Adds a character drawn in code to 'Shiny' apps and 'Quarto'
sites. The character shows a mood with status text beside it and
animates when the mood changes; a 'Shiny' server can change its mood,
status, speech bubble and gestures, and a click can run an action or
open a menu. It follows light and dark mode and takes its colours from
built-in palettes or custom colours. Custom characters can be described
in 'JSON' and checked before use, and an interactive app demonstrates
every function.
