Summer inspired palettes for R

It is day 50 of lockdown as I am writing this, and if there is one thing that I keep thinking about how much I miss, that is lying down at the beach, just enjoying a book and the warmth of the sun 🌞. Given that going to the beach is not actually a possibility -it's actually kind of cold-ish outside at the moment-, and after endless staring at old Summer pictures, I found out about this color gradient tool a few days ago (gracias Jorge!) and started playing around with my Summer pictures on it. In the end, I really liked some of the resulting palettes and I think I'll be using them, so I ended up writing a short package to upload my favorite ones.

Most of the package code is based on my favorite color scales package: wesanderson by Karthik Ram.
