What is Coolors?

Coolors is a popular color palette generator that helps you create and explore color schemes. It's great for inspiration but outputs hex codes only.

When Coolors might work:

  • You have time to iterate on designs over days or weeks
  • You don't need code-ready assets
  • You have a designer to implement the brand in code

Our CLAUDE.md file also provides AI-powered brand context for tools like Cursor and Claude.
