There’s an open PR on PlotDocs to describe this functionality: [https://github.com/JuliaPlots/PlotDocs.jl/pull/57/files](https://github.com/JuliaPlots/PlotDocs.jl/pull/57/files)  
The contents are mainly based on this discourse thread: [Current list of colorschemes in Plots.jl](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/current-list-of-colorschemes-in-plots-jl/5420)
