Frequently Asked Questions — Color Palette Generator
What is a complementary color?+
A complementary color sits directly opposite on the color wheel (180° away). It creates strong contrast and is great for call-to-action elements.
What is a triadic color scheme?+
Triadic uses 3 colors spaced 120° apart on the color wheel. It creates balance and vibrancy, popular in web and graphic design.
What are analogous colors?+
Analogous colors are adjacent on the color wheel (±15-30°). They create a harmonious, pleasing look — common in nature.
How do I use the CSS variables output?+
Copy the :root { ... } block into your CSS file. Then use var(--color-primary) instead of hardcoded hex values throughout your stylesheet.
