Import

import getPalette from "tailwindcss-palette-generator";

getPalette()

const palette = getPalette(params);

Params :

  • "color" : Main color of your palette. [*Required] (String)
  • "name" : The name of your palette. [*Required] (String)
  • "shade" : What time do you want the main shades of your palette to start and end at. [Optional] (Number)
  • "shades" : Shade layers of your palette. [Optional] (Array)
    • If you add this you should add main shade as well. "shade:"
    • Must be of type array.
    • May consist of at least 3 elements.
If you want to create multiple palettes. You must enter the properties of the palette in array type.

Example:

const palette = getPalette([
  {
    color: "rgb(255, 189, 0)", // required
    name: "primary", // required
    shade: 400
  },
  {
    color: "rgba(255, 189, 0, 1)", // required
    name: "secondary", // required
    shade: 500
  },
  {
    color: "hsl(44, 100%, 50%)", // required
    name: "tertiary", // required
    shade: 600
  },
  {
    color: "#FFBD00", // required
    name: "quaternary", // required
    shade: 300, // you will set shades is mandatory
    shades: [100, 200, 300, 400, 500]
  }
]);
If you will create a palette you can give parameters as json data.

Example:

const objectPalette = getPalette({
  color: "#FFBD00", // required
  name: "primary", // required
  shade: 300, // you will set shaders is mandatory
  shades: [100, 200, 300, 400, 500]
});

If you don't want to deal with parameters and you only have one color, you can create a palette by sending the string color as a parameter.

Example:

const stringPalette = getPalette("#FFBD00");
