Looks pretty cool!

I was delighted to see that the page loaded almost instantly, and the transitions, spring animations, all work super smoothly ! I’m usually frustrated with Material Design components because they « feel » slow for some reason, but this implementation works perfectly.

What does it mean when a public github project has no LICENSE file?

Am I only legally allowed to view* the source code, but can't download and run it locally? Or can I run it locally, but not publish it publicly?

* The source for the app doesn't have a License file as of dae0f0f: https://github.com/longsangstan/color-app

Looks like you probably can pull it down but not redistribute it or use it to create other programs.

Very playful and focused. The only issue I have is with the preview image.

The image shows islands of colors isolated by big white space. Most color combinations look good in this context. When two colored shapes touch each others, then things get tricky. Eyes can pick out subtle lightning clues, like darker colors moving toward purplish hues.

Maybe add another image that shows overlapping colored shapes?
