What color formats do I get?

Each color is shown as HEX, RGB, and HSL, and you can copy any of them. You can also export the whole palette as CSS variables, Tailwind config, SCSS, JSON, SVG, or PNG.

How do the different generation modes work?

Random gives instant palettes, Keyword and AI generate themed colors, Brand builds an identity-style scheme, Image extracts colors from an uploaded photo, and Gradient produces gradient palettes — pick whichever fits how you want to start.

Can I keep some colors and change the others?

Yes. Lock any colors you like, then click regenerate, and the tool replaces only the unlocked swatches while preserving your locked ones.

What is WCAG contrast and why does it matter?

WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) defines minimum contrast ratios for readable text — 4.5:1 for normal text at AA, 7:1 at AAA. The tool checks your palette automatically so your text stays legible.

Can I check how my palette looks to color-blind users?

Yes. The tool can simulate protanopia, deuteranopia, and tritanopia, so you can confirm your colors still convey meaning and remain distinguishable for people with color vision deficiencies.

Can I create a palette from a photo?

Yes. Use Image mode to upload a photo, and the tool extracts a palette from its dominant colors — useful for matching designs to existing brand or product imagery.

How do I get CSS variables or Tailwind colors?

Use the export menu to copy or download CSS custom properties, a Tailwind config block, or SCSS variables, ready to paste straight into your project.

How many colors can a palette have?

You can set the palette to 5, 6, 8, or 10 colors depending on how rich a scheme you need, and preview them as a row or a grid.

Can I generate harmonious color schemes?

Yes. You can build schemes like complementary and analogous around a chosen base hue, which produces colors that relate to each other intentionally rather than at random.

Yes. Palettes are generated in your browser, and images you use for extraction are processed locally — nothing is uploaded to a server. The colors you create are yours to use.

Can I save palettes for later?

Yes. You can mark palettes as favorites and they'll be available when you return, so you don't have to recreate a scheme you liked.
