Five swatches to unblock a mock. Accessibility is a ratio on real type sizes, not a pretty ramp.
A landing mock that still has #000 on #111. This page gives a starting ramp. It is not a brand system and not Stark.
Verify pairs on contrast checker. Pull a hex off a screenshot with image color picker. Shadows and gradients have their own generators.
Mock color, then measure contrast
Landing-page accents and slide decks need a few HEX candidates. That is not a brand book and not print CMYK. Pair the colors you actually put on body text with the contrast checker — WCAG-style 4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large/UI is a common rule of thumb, not a certificate.
How to use it
- Pick a seed or accept a generated set.
- Copy hex values into CSS variables.
- Run the primary text pair through contrast before review.

Not a license to ship. Not print-accurate. Not a full theme (hover, disabled, dark mode).
