COLORS-SASS

Better colors for the web.

View the project page at http://clrs.cc

What is this?

A simple color palette for the web. Let's be honest, out of the box, the color strings that css provides aren't... the tops. This is a set of sass/less/stylus/css variables and css classes that can help fix that with just 647B of minified and gzipped css.

(Uncompressed is just 888B)

colors.css provides utilities to apply backgrounds, text-color, border colors for both html and svg elements.

Install colors.css

You can get the code a few different ways

Download a zip from the github project page

Clone / fork the repo through git

git clone [e-mail]:mrmrs/colors-sass.git

Install through npm

npm install --save-dev colors-sass

Install the ruby gem

Using the css

Simply copy colors.css to your css directory and include the file like so in the head of your html document

<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/colors.css">

Setup

You can customize the colors in sass/_variables if you'd like to alter any of the provided values.

Have fun!
