Randomly Generating Color Sets with a Minimum Perceptual Distance
Earlier this year, I released a color cycle picker that enforces a minimum perceptual distance between colors, including color vision deficiency simulations, with the goal of creating a better color cycle to replace the “category 10” color palette used by … Continue reading
