How It Works
Step-by-Step Process
Color Harmony Types
- ✓Complementary: Colors opposite on the color wheel - creates high contrast and vibrant designs perfect for call-to-action buttons and brand accents
- ✓Triadic: Three colors evenly spaced on the color wheel - balanced and harmonious, ideal for complex interfaces and illustration work
- ✓Analogous: Adjacent colors on the color wheel - creates serene and natural palettes perfect for backgrounds and gradients
- ✓Monochromatic: Different shades and tints of the same color - sophisticated and cohesive, excellent for minimalist designs
- ✓Split-Complementary: Base color plus two adjacent to its complement - offers high contrast with more visual interest than complementary schemes
Accessibility & WCAG Compliance
- ✓WCAG AA Compliance: Contrast ratio of 4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text - meets legal accessibility standards
- ✓WCAG AAA Compliance: Contrast ratio of 7:1 for normal text, 4.5:1 for large text - exceeds minimum requirements
- ✓Color Vision Deficiency Safe: Palettes tested for protanopia, deuteranopia, and tritanopia accessibility
- ✓Real-time Contrast Checker: Instant validation against white and black backgrounds for text readability
Developer-Ready Export Formats
- ✓CSS Variables: Ready-to-use CSS custom properties for modern stylesheets and design systems
- ✓JSON Format: Structured data perfect for design tokens, style dictionaries, and configuration files
- ✓Tailwind CSS Config: Drop-in color configuration for Tailwind CSS projects and utility-first frameworks
- ✓Sass Variables: SCSS/Sass variable definitions compatible with preprocessing workflows and build systems
- ✓Copy-Ready Formats: One-click copying in HEX, RGB, and HSL formats for immediate use in any project
