📝 Overview

Tints and Shades Generator is a web tool designed to create perceptually uniform color variations from a single base color.

Unlike traditional RGB or HSL mixing, this tool leverages the OKLCH color space to ensure smooth, consistent gradients. By aligning with human visual perception, it prevents colors from becoming "muddy" or washed out as they shift. This allows you to instantly generate professional UI palettes—where tints stay vibrant and shades maintain their depth—without the need for manual correction.

• 🎨 Beautiful, natural gradients for any base color

• 🎨 TailwindCSS compatible color palette generation
• 🎚 Adjust color weights with 0.1% precision

• 📋 One-click copy of color codes (hex / rgb / hsl)
• 🔄 Switch between hex, rgb, and hsl formats for display and copy
• 📱 Responsive design for mobile compatibility
