Color Palette Generator
Tints · shades · CSS custom properties
The Color Palette Generator builds color scales (50–950) from one or more base colors, with saturation curves and HSL, OKLCH, or LAB-style algorithms. Export :root with semantic variables, copy token JSON, and review WCAG contrast for typical text and background pairs — ideal for aligning Figma and CSS.

Why use a palette generator
- Design system consistency: 50–950 steps aligned with conventions like Tailwind simplify theming and dark mode.
- Ready-to-paste export: custom properties in
:root, optional HSL, and semantic names for UI parts. - Accessibility: a WCAG view to sanity-check text/background pairs on your tokens.
Use it alongside the Spacing Scale Generator and Design Token Formatter for a full token set.
