FAQ Frequently Asked Questions

What accessibility tests are performed on color palettes?

The tool typically tests color contrast ratios against WCAG guidelines, checks combinations for sufficient readability, and may simulate how palettes appear to users with different types of color vision deficiencies.

Can I create palettes based on color theory principles?

Yes, many tools generate palettes using complementary, analogous, triadic, or monochromatic color schemes. These scientifically-based approaches help create harmonious and visually pleasing color combinations.

What export formats are available for color palettes?

Common export formats include JSON, CSS variables, Adobe Swatch Exchange (.ase), GIMP palettes (.gpl), and sometimes custom formats for specific design tools or development workflows.

How does colorblindness simulation help my designs?

Colorblindness simulation shows how your palette appears to users with protanopia, deuteranopia, or tritanopia. This helps ensure your designs remain accessible and functional for users with color vision deficiencies.

Can I analyze existing brand colors for expansion?

Yes, you can input existing brand colors and generate complementary palettes that maintain brand consistency while expanding your color options for various design elements and contexts.
