What it does
uiGradients is a collection of multi-colour gradients backed by a public repository. Each dataset entry pairs a name with hex colour values, giving designers and developers a reusable source of colour combinations. The public repository supplies its project code under the MIT licence.
The data is a useful part of this collection. In gradients.json, Omolon contains three blue values, while Farhan pairs two purples. Each record uses the same name-and-colours structure, so a project can preserve a chosen combination directly.
The repository explains how to retrieve the JSON file and how contributors add a named combination. It explicitly says there is no official API. Linked ports adapt the collection for other environments, including styling tools and mobile code.
The project code is distributed under MIT. Reusing or modifying it requires keeping the copyright and permission notices; a linked port may have its own additional implementation terms.
Strengths
- Named combinations are available as structured hex-colour data.
- The repository documents data retrieval and contributions.
Watch out for
- The project does not provide an official API.
Best for
- Designers and developers choosing a reusable gradient colour combination.
