About Color Palette & Gradient Tools
For an interface palette, place the colors on actual text, backgrounds and states before settling on them. For a gradient, check the result in the browser and inspect the exported CSS or SVG. For reusable shades, keep names and values consistent with your design tokens. A pleasing set of swatches becomes useful when it survives the constraints of the finished screen.
