Hi Mohammad, Thanks for the initiative and the demo. Looks like it will need some additional steps to approach the goal of maximal simplicity and user friendliness even for beginners – but I would say it’s absolutely worth it!
Motivated by the first example I saw from you I experimented a bit with the tools I made some time ago. This is what I could come up with until now and what I still consider as much too complicated: https://tid.li/tw5/apps/palette.html Important facts, concepts and questions: - this is *experimental* – don’t use it for anything important - based on the *primary* colour there are calculated a lot of other colours automagically, all tagged and namespaced - neighbouring colours - triadic and quadratic contrasting colours - like shades and tints in your demo these are meant as an inspiration for tuning, only a few of them should be used - some colours are *static* as they are hard to calculate in a meaningful way: colours for buttons, warnings and a rather neutral scale - Is it wise to *mix* colours for the scale (opacity = 1) and use *alpha* transparency for the shades? - To transfer the result to another wiki it is relatively safe to copy *the palette* AND all tiddlers tagged *$:/tags/Colours* (drag the tag pill) at the moment. - My palette *generator* (compiles all variables to fixed values) leads to problems with transparency in tag colours. rgba definitions seem not to work in this form, while they work in transclustions (?!) – I wonder if the contrastcolour macro <https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease/#contrastcolour%20Macro>causes this. - *Readability* can be checked for many TW use cases – but not yet for the tiddler editor buttons for example. (They lack dedicated colours in the CSS.) - The *Colour Scheme Manager* is not consistent in the way it is changing colours: backgrounds are changed directly in the palette indexes, while the others change in my new colour tiddlers.
