How can the color palette be configured to respond to flexdashboard filters without relying on Shiny?

One option to configure the color palette to respond to flexdashboard filters without using Shiny is to use CSS and JavaScript.

Here's an example:

1. First, define the color palette you want to use. For example:

```{css} :root { --color-1: #e6194B; --color-2: #3cb44b; --color-3: #ffe119; --color-4: #0082c8; --color-5: #f58231; --color-6: #911eb4; --color-7: #46f0f0; --color-8: #f032e6; --color-9: #d2f53c; --color-10: #fabebe; }

2. Next, use JavaScript to listen for changes in the filters and dynamically update the CSS variables that define the color palette. For example: 

```{js}
$(document).on("shiny:connected", function(event) {
  var filters = $(".filter-input");

  filters.on("change", function() {
    var filterValues = {};
    filters.each(function() {
      var filterName = $(this).attr("data-filter");
      var filterValue = $(this).val();
      filterValues[filterName] = filterValue;
    });

    // Update the CSS variables that define the color palette
    for (var filterName in filterValues) {
      var filterValue = filterValues[filterName];
      var variableName = "--color-" + filterName;
      var variableValue = getColorForFilterValue(filterValue);
      document.documentElement.style.setProperty(variableName, variableValue);
    }
  });
});

function getColorForFilterValue(filterValue) {
  // Define the color mappings for each possible filter value
  var colorMappings = {
    "Value 1": "#e6194B",
    "Value 2": "#3cb44b",
    "Value 3": "#ffe119",
    "Value 4": "#0082c8",
    "Value 5": "#f58231"
  };

  // Return the color for the given filter value
  return colorMappings[filterValue];
}

1. Finally, use the CSS variables in your charts and other visualizations. For example:

{css} .chart { color: var(--color-1); }

This will allow the color of the chart to change dynamically based on the selected filter value.
