What is a color palette?

A color palette is a curated set of colors that work well together. It's used in design, branding, and web development.

How do I use generated palettes?

Copy the color codes (HEX, RGB) and use them in your design software, website, or branding materials.

What is color harmony?

Colors that work well together based on color theory. Complementary, analogous, and triadic are common harmony types.

Can I lock specific colors?

Yes, lock colors you like and regenerate others to find the perfect combination.

What's the difference between HEX and RGB?

Both represent colors. HEX uses hexadecimal (#FF5733), RGB uses decimal values (255, 87, 51). Different contexts use different formats.

How do I check color accessibility?

Check contrast ratios between colors to ensure text readability for people with color vision deficiency.
