A palette gives a design a consistent set of colors, but visually pleasing colors do not automatically make text easy to read. Check how colors work together in the actual interface, especially for small text and interactive controls.
Give Colors Clear Roles
Choose a small set of roles such as background, surface, body text, accent, and status colors. Reusing the same role consistently makes pages easier to scan. A Color Palette Generator can provide a starting set, while the Color Picker can inspect and convert color values.
Check Contrast and Meaning
Test foreground and background pairs at the size and weight where they will appear. Do not use color as the only way to indicate an error, selected state, or chart category; add text, icons, patterns, or another visual cue. Review the page in grayscale or with a color-vision simulation when possible.
Test in Context
Color perception can change across screens and lighting. Preview the palette in real components, check keyboard focus and hover states, and make sure links remain distinguishable from surrounding text. A generated palette is a design aid, not an accessibility audit.
