> I don't know about you, but I am much better at decoding separate RGB values (as in, including hex) than I am at decoding a single chroma value. I can do it, but RGB and HEX are awful for me. A lot of mental work must be done to get to decimal/hex colors: 1. Memorize what happens when you mix combinations of RGB. 2. Learn/internalize hex 3. Mentally map how each color might roughly look in both decimal and hex. All of that can be learned of course, but that's a lot of work compared to memorizing four numeric waypoints for hues (Red, Yellow, Blue, Green) to start. The rest was super easy for me once I knew that Chroma is how much color you're putting in (0=gray). By the way, you mentioned Chroma earlier. Did you mean Hue instead? The beauty of OKLCH is that you don't absolutely have to know Hue cold to work with colors and create variations. You can pick your primary, secondary, etc. colors. Then set the Chroma (which probably remains the same throughout your palette) and Hue to CSS variables. Then forget about their real values and just use the variables. To get a color palette, adjust with the brightness to develop as many levels of a color as needed. Then, take that color and copy/paste for however many colors you have in your palette, replacing the hue with a different variable for each color. All the colors will have the same perceived brightness at a given level of lightness, which is a huge win that isn't easily achieved in other color systems like RGB.
