Package Exports
- flat-palettes
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 (flat-palettes) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Motivation
Finding - or thinking of - a beautiful color palette to use in your next project is such a complicated - and important - task: sometimes you've just lost all your creativity or sometimes you just can't get the right inspiration.
Then you go search through flat colors websites and get tons of those - but you still can't combine them in a beautiful palette.
Then you find lots of those most-wanted inspirational palettes in
cool
sites.
But you still can't help yourself in choosing one amongst 2000+
options.
Then you get to my problem: choosing a random color palette which I know I'm
probably going to appreciate - and use in my project - in 5-
minutes. Luckily
you also get to the solution:
flat-palettes.
