Frequently Asked Questions
Are the color palettes generated accessible?
Our generator creates palettes with sufficient contrast by default. For critical accessibility needs, we recommend verifying contrast ratios with specialized tools like WebAIM's Contrast Checker.

While we don't currently offer account-based saving, you can copy the color codes or take a screenshot of your palette for future reference.
How do I use these colors in my CSS?
Simply copy the hex codes (like #3b82f6) and use them in your CSS properties (color, background-color, border-color, etc.). Our generator provides the codes in ready-to-use format.
