FAQ

Answers to some questions you might have.

How may colors should i choose?

Normally, 3 colors are absolutely fine (meaning background, text, and one accent color).
However, if you want, you can have more. Usually, we don't add more than 6 colors across a platform. It would just make things too... complicated. Plus, it makes it hard to keep the colors consistent throughout the design.

How does the contrast checker work?

There are two contrast checkers on the site. One automatically switches the text color for the inputs "Primary Button," "Secondary Button," and "Accent" between the background color and the text color to change them to the most compatible color.

The other contrast checker shows the contrast ratio between the selected color and its background/foreground. For the text input, it checks the contrast against the background, and for the rest of the inputs, against the foreground.

The contrast checker has 3 lights:

  • Red: The contrast ratio does not pass either AAA or AA. Therefore, both large and normal texts are hardly readable.
  • Yellow: The contrast ratio might pass AA but won't pass AAA. Large texts might be readable but normal texts are probably not readable.
  • Green: The contrast ratio passes both AA and AAA. Both large and normal texts are readable.

What will I receive after downloading the exported file?

After downloading through export options, you will receive a .zip file. This file is compressed, so you will have to extract it.
After extracting it, you will see a .png file and a .txt file. The .png image shows your color palette in squares next to each other. The .txt file includes the color codes in HEX and RGB. You can send these files to designers or developers, or just use them in your project.

Why do some colors have some transparency?

This website allows you to choose only opaque colors. However, to make the design more appealing, I've made some parts more transparent by adding a bit of opacity to them. Of course, you can use these colors however you want in your own projects.

What does the hero image represent?

The hero image is inspired by Piet Mondrian's Composition with Large Red Plane, Yellow, Black, Grey and Blue. This composition keeps the ratio of the main colors (red, blue, and yellow) very close to the 60-30-10 rule of UI design. This is mainly why I've chosen this composition to visualize the distribution of the colors on the page.
