It seems to be an article-length piece, leading up to a downloadable spreadsheet. That's ... not so accessible. I quickly found [1] at Digi-Key which is a simple online calculator. It also features a handy table of reference voltages for various colors of LED, which I appreciated.
Ideally I guess the color should be choosable and used to populate the voltage, but that seems to be Super-Advanced Thinking in this area.
The full set of calculators [2] seems quite impressive and useful, too.
