FAQ
How to use this page?
Copy a HEX code or open any shade in Shade Color for a complete tint-and-shade set.
What is the most popular shade of pink?
Hot pink is the breakout popular pink for marketing and fashion accents because it stays vivid on screens and print.
What is the base pink HEX value?
The reference base pink on this page uses #FFC0CB. Use it as a starting seed in Shade Color, or pick any named swatch above as your base.
How do I turn a swatch into a full UI theme?
Click Palette on one gallery card. Shade Color locks hue and saturation, then varies lightness into tokens like Pink-50 through Pink-950 for CSS variables.
What do the W / B contrast labels mean?
Each card shows WCAG 2.x contrast for this color used as text on white (W) and text on black (B). AA means at least 4.5:1 (normal text); AAA means at least 7:1. Fail means below 4.5:1 — still fine for large decorative areas, but avoid for small body text.
What does Preview UI show?
Turn on Preview UI to see the color as text on white/black and as a simple button sample. It is a quick accessibility and context check—not a full design system.
Why use this gallery instead of sampling from a screenshot?
Named colors here use fixed HEX values, so you avoid compression and display-profile drift from screenshots. Copy the code once, then reuse it consistently in CSS or design tokens. For a full 50–950 CSS variable block, open Palette on a card and use Copy CSS in Shade Color.
