Package Exports

color-name-list

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (color-name-list) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

14874 color-names 🎨

A handpicked list of 14874 unique color names from various sources and thousands of user submissions. Try it yourself or read the full list.

The names of color function like a thread attached to a frightfully slender needle, capable of stitching together our most delicate emotions and memories. When the needle hits the target, we feel either pleasure or emathy. Kenya Hara – White

About 📋

The aim of this project is to create as large a list as possible of color names. We've merged various lists, modified the names when there were duplicates with different hex values, and shifted the colors a bit when there were identical colors with different names.
