#' The easystats' minimal theme
#'
#' A modern, sleek and elegant theme for ggplot.
#'
#' @inheritParams ggplot2::theme
#' @inheritParams ggplot2::theme_classic
#' @param plot.title.size Title size in pts. Can be "none".
#' @param plot.title.face Title font face ("plain", "italic", "bold", "bold.italic").
#' @param plot.title.space Title spacing.
#' @param plot.title.position Alignment of the plot title/subtitle and caption.
#'   The setting for plot.title.position applies to both the title and the
#'   subtitle. A value of "panel" (the default) means that titles and/or caption
#'   are aligned to the plot panels. A value of "plot" means that titles and/or
#'   caption are aligned to the entire plot (minus any space for margins and
#'   plot tag).
#' @param legend.title.size Legend elements text size in pts.
#' @param legend.text.size Legend elements text size in pts. Can be "none".
#' @param axis.title.space Axis title spacing.
#' @param axis.title.size Axis title text size in pts.
#' @param axis.title.face Axis font face ("plain", "italic", "bold", "bold.italic").
#' @param axis.text.size Axis text size in pts.
#' @param axis.text.angle Rotate  the x axis labels.
#' @param tags.size Tags text size in pts.
#' @param tags.face Tags font face ("plain", "italic", "bold", "bold.italic").
#' @param ... Further arguments passed to `ggplot2::theme()`.
#'
#' @note Base elements like plot borders, titles etc. are scaling with
#' `base_size`, i.e. when `base_size` is increased, all other relevant elements
#' are increased in proportion to the base size, to ensure proper scaling of
#' the plot. Set arguments for the related elements explicitly to define custom
#' sizes.
