# Additional themes available for `ggplot2`

In addition to the built-in themes provided by `ggplot2`, several libraries offer additional themes helpful to customize the appearance of plots. These libraries include `ggthemes`, `ggdark`, `ggtech`, `ggthemr`, and `hrbrthemes`, which provide a wide range of themes with different visual styles and color palettes. 

We’ll discuss two of these libraries in detail and how to use their themes in `ggplot2` plots with examples. We can add more variety and customization to our plots using these additional themes.

Let’s first create a density plot using the `iris` dataset and then explore the additional themes in `ggplot2`:
