What it is
Tailwind CSS colour generator: paste a hex and it builds the full numbered shade ramp, then previews it on realistic components — cards, dashboards, charts — rather than bare swatches. Adds success, warning and error scales plus a custom neutral, and exports palettes for a Tailwind config.
Why it earns a slot
The standard fix for 'my brand colour is not one of Tailwind's'. It generates a ramp with sane lightness steps so
bg-brand-50 through bg-brand-950 behave like the built-in palettes.Know before you commit
Generated ramps are mathematically even, not perceptually even — eyeball the middle shades against a real background, especially for yellows, greens and cyans.
Neighbourhood
How uiColors sits against the rest of the atlas — swaps, companions and the tools builders actually save alongside it.
