Palette Generator Tool Overview This tool offers color palette generation tailored for data visualization and UI design, focusing on creating visually equidistant colors to enhance chart readability and usability. --- Navigation Tabs Palette: Generates a multi-color palette. Single Hue: Creates a single hue scale. Divergent: Produces a divergent color scale transitioning through a neutral midpoint. --- Palette Generator Features Number of Colors: Adjustable between 3 to 8. Background Color Option: Light or Dark. Color Selection: Start and end colors are selectable via color pickers. Outputs: Copy HEX values or export as SVG compatible with Sketch, Figma, Adobe XD. In Context View: Visual preview with canvas and SVG showing practical application (Washington state map). Use Cases Ideal for pie charts, grouped bar charts, maps. Ensures colors are visually equidistant to improve distinction and key comparison. Allows inclusion of brand colors as palette endpoints. Tips Pick distinctly different endpoint colors (e.g., warm vs cool, bright vs dark). Modify saturation/brightness slightly for brand colors for better palette aesthetics. For showing strength of a single variable, consider using the Single Hue mode. --- Single Hue Scale Generator Features Number of Colors: Adjustable from 3 to 9. Brightness and Color Intensity Sliders: Modify scale luminance and chroma. Background Color: Light or Dark. Outputs: Copy HEX values or export as SVG. Visualization: Shows application on Washington map and a week-by-week calendar. Use Cases Best for data visualizations where value of one variable is represented. Useful when size is constant but color indicates variable value (e.g., maps, calendars). Tips To make a flat gray endpoint, set color intensity to zero. For white endpoint, set brightness full and color intensity zero. For variables with neutral midpoint, use the Divergent Scale instead. --- Divergent Color Scale Generator Features Number of Colors: Adjustable 5 to 13 by steps of 2. Midpoint Color Modification: Adjust brightness and color intensity of neutral midpoint. Background Color: Light or Dark. Outputs: Copy HEX values or export as SVG. Visualization: Displays on Washington map with divergent colors. Use Cases Suited to visualizations showing transition from one extreme, through neutral, to opposite extreme. Example: US state voting patterns from Democrat to Republican. Tips Default neutral midpoint is light gray; can be customized. When endpoint colors differ significantly, lower color intensity to avoid blending. Ensures visually equidistant colors, though uneven saturation/darkness can influence color space distribution. --- Sidebar Features Free UI Color Cheatsheet Practical color usage strategies for UI design, aimed at both beginners and professionals.
