Question 1

How does the color palette generator work?

Accepted Answer

Pick a base color and choose a harmony rule (complementary, analogous, triadic, tetradic, monochromatic or shades). The tool calculates the related colors using HSL color theory and displays them side by side. You can lock colors, randomize unlocked ones and export the full palette.

Question 2

Can I export the palette for my project?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Export as CSS custom properties, SCSS variables, Tailwind config, JSON array or download a PNG image of the palette swatches. Click any swatch to copy its hex code to your clipboard.

Question 3

What is a complementary color scheme?

Accepted Answer

A complementary scheme uses two colors directly opposite each other on the color wheel (180° apart). This creates high contrast and vibrant looks — great for highlights and call-to-action buttons.

Question 4

Is this color palette tool free?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It is 100% free with no signup. Everything runs in your browser and no data is sent to any server.
