Colour Palette Generator

Build harmonious five-colour palettes from a base colour using HSL colour relationships, then copy HEX values or export CSS variables.

Harmony

Neighbouring hues for a smooth, related palette.

How to use Colour Palette Generator

  1. 1Choose a base colour with the picker or enter a 6-digit HEX value.
  2. 2Choose monochromatic, analogous, complementary, split-complementary or triadic harmony.
  3. 3Click a swatch to copy it, copy the whole palette, share it or download CSS variables.

Useful tips

  • •Use analogous or monochromatic palettes when you want a calmer, more unified look.
  • •Use complementary, split-complementary or triadic palettes when you want more colour contrast.
  • •The swatch label colour is chosen for readability on that swatch, but final text/background pairs should still be checked for your accessibility target.

Frequently asked questions

How are the palettes generated?

Wid9et converts the base colour to HSL, applies the selected hue relationship, then adjusts saturation and lightness for supporting colours.

Can I export the palette?

Yes. You can copy all HEX values or download a CSS file containing five custom properties.

Are my colours uploaded?

No. Palette generation, copying and CSS export all happen locally in your browser.
