Earlier quoted context omitted.

do you know a tool that uses OKHSL/V instead of hex? Like colorcolor.in uses such a color space, but then all the overlays are still in hex, so there is this break between input and output

You meant the "Overlay" (bottom-left) to have HSL option too? Btw, if you open an issue/request with the right context, Saneef will look into it. I will nudge him if that makes sense. https://github.com/saneef/color-color

Yes, so if I start a palette at Lightness 100 and end at Lightness 0, I should see these numbers in the resulting colors

In this specific example the starting color is still not ff, but f9 due to some easing interference (though I'd expect a function x=0 y=0 to not do anything for the very first color), but even then you still see a clear connection, and if you had 10 steps you'd see ~10 lightness point increase in each palette color

For the "brand" example demo'd, is that what people tend to do for configs? I thought people would simply just modify the default colors or create new variables like primary, secondary, etc..

Hey! I'm the creator of tints.dev – the "brand" set of colours is what I use on my blog simeongriggs.dev and yeah I used this tool to put in the `500` swatch value and generate the rest :)
