Colour Science is one of the more serious projects I know of, and more or less lets you get as advanced as you want. Used by film professionals among others. https://www.colour-science.org/ How would you define what the perfect color tool is? I would guess like most tools that it depends entirely on the job at hand, and that maybe no one perfect tool can exist. Colour Science might be great at serious color managemen…

I'm not entirely sure what I'm looking for, to be honest. I have this vague feeling that I'll know it when I see it. A lot of tools are attractive and provide unique features, but I don't think I've ever come across one where I immediately say to myself "yes! this is going to be my day-to-day professional tool." Nothing has quite hit that mark with me. Colour Science looks neat though, I'll check it out. Thank you!

The idea is to define the color palette in such a way that we know whether a color combination is accessible just by looking at the color name. For example, using the USWDS design system, I know that blue-30 on gray-80 is accessible (WCAG AA), because the difference between both values is 50+. I once wrote a blog post about this (niche) concept: http…
