Frequently asked questions

What does the color blender do?

It mixes two colors and produces a series of intermediate steps, which is useful for gradients, palettes and hover states.

Which color space is used for blending?

Blends are interpolated in RGB by default. Note that RGB interpolation can pass through a muddy midpoint for some color pairs.

How many steps can I generate?

Choose the number of intermediate stops you need; more steps give a smoother gradient between the two endpoints.

Can I copy the result as CSS?

Yes. Copy individual hex values or use them as gradient stops in a linear-gradient.

Why does my midpoint look grey?

Mixing complementary colors in RGB tends toward grey at the midpoint. Pick analogous colors or add more steps to keep the blend vivid.

Is any data uploaded?

No. All blending runs locally in your browser.
