A small side project for even colour scales

About A small side project for even colour scales

Every hue equally light and colourful at each step, for sRGB and Display P3. Free, in the browser.

In the maker’s words

I am no developer but a designer. For a side project I needed a colour palette in which any hue looks about equally light and colorful at any shade as any other hue in shades. It was hard to create this palette with typical color pickers in HSB or HSL, even when I tried to do it systematically. Some shades just seemed brighter or more colourful than others. I also couldnt find any other tool that could do it the way i wanted. So I fell down a rabbit hole and built a small tool to solve it. Its a bit over engineered now but I had fun doing it and really does the job for me now. It uses no framework and is tiny, which I like. You can read more about it here colours.viesual.net/about Maybe its useful to anyone else. Happy for feedback!
