All toolsWhat to know before you start
A shade scale needs more than lighter and darker HEX values
Useful 50–950 ramps preserve a recognizable hue while adjusting lightness and saturation across UI states. Very light steps should work for subtle surfaces, middle steps for brand fills, and dark steps for text or strong emphasis without collapsing into indistinguishable colors.
Validate the generated ramp in context
Copy the values into CSS variables or a Tailwind theme, then test text contrast, hover states, borders, and disabled controls. A mathematically smooth palette is not automatically accessible. Check important foreground and background pairs with a contrast checker before release.
