Frequently asked questions
- What format are the colors in?
- Colors are output as 6-digit hexadecimal values (e.g. #a3f2c1), the standard format used in CSS, HTML, and most design tools.
- How do I copy a color?
- Click any color swatch and its HEX code is copied to your clipboard automatically.
- Will I get truly random colors or a curated palette?
- Each of the 3 RGB channels is independently randomized, so results can range from muted earth tones to vivid neons. There is no harmony filter applied by default.
- Can I use these colors in my CSS or Figma?
- Yes. Paste the HEX code directly into any CSS color property, Figma color picker, Adobe tool, or Tailwind config.
