What it does
- 12 carefully tuned themes for editor, terminal and UI
- Companion site with live previews, rankings and the research behind each palette
- Benchmark covering WCAG contrast, CIEDE2000 colour separation, saturation, blue-channel and luminance, terminal contrast and syntax-role coverage
- Metrics that need outside evidence say ‘Not available’ rather than inventing a number

Honest limits
The metrics describe colour, not medical eye-comfort outcomes.
