What is an analogous color scheme?

Analogous colors sit adjacent to each other on the color wheel (±25° steps). They feel harmonious and natural — common in nature and calm designs.

What is a complementary color scheme?

Complementary colors are directly opposite on the wheel (180° apart). They create high contrast and visual tension — great for call-to-action highlights.

What is a triadic color scheme?

Triadic colors are three evenly spaced hues (120° apart). They provide balance while keeping variety — popular in bold, playful designs.

How do I use the generated CSS variables?

Copy the :root block and paste it into your CSS file. Then reference colors as var(--color-1), var(--color-2), etc.

Can I change individual colors after generating?

Change the seed color or scheme settings and regenerate. For fine-grained editing, copy individual HEX values into the Color Picker.
