What is a color palette generator?

A color palette generator is a tool that creates harmonious color combinations based on color theory rules. It helps designers and developers quickly build professional color schemes for websites, apps, branding, and digital artwork.

What are color harmony rules?

Color harmony rules are systematic approaches to selecting colors that work well together. Common rules include Analogous (adjacent colors), Complementary (opposite colors), Triadic (three evenly spaced colors), Split-Complementary, Monochromatic, and Tetradic.

Can I lock colors I like?

Yes, you can lock any color in your palette by clicking the lock icon. Locked colors stay fixed when you shuffle or change harmony rules, letting you keep specific colors while regenerating the rest.

How do I export my palette?

Click the Export button to choose from multiple formats: PNG image, CSS variables, SCSS variables, JSON, SVG, or Tailwind config. Most formats are copied to your clipboard, while PNG downloads as an image file.

Can I reorder colors in the palette?

Yes, you can drag and drop color cards to reorder them. The drag handle on each card lets you rearrange the palette to match your preferred sequence.

Is my palette history saved?

Yes, your 14 most recent palettes are automatically saved in your browser. You can view the history by clicking the History button and load any previous palette with one click.

Is this tool free to use?

Yes, the color palette generator is 100% free with no sign-up required. It works directly in your browser with no installations or downloads needed.

Can I add or remove colors from the palette?

Yes, you can add new colors by clicking the + buttons between cards, or remove colors with the × button on each card. This gives you full control over the size and composition of your palette.
