   Thanks for the suggestion. Could be nice to have, but then there must be a visual feedback for the user. Issues/PRs are welcomed in the GH repo.

   Thanks! My answers to your points: 1. True. Maybe I could make it also disabled to restrict interacting with it altogether. 2. I didn't design the tool as a more serious colorpicker or color scheme generator, so I wasn't thinking

   I was commenting based on the HSL values of the mentioned colors. At the time of creating this tool I really didn't care too much about using a more perception-aware color space. Doing it just based on HSL already seemed like a huge wi

   Thanks. Colors are sorted just based on their hue, saturation and lightness.

   Good point, thanks for pointing it out. I think I was trying to deal with it, but for some reason I just let it be this way. Also contributions are welcome! :)

    Thanks, I'm happy to hear you enjoyed it. I'm not aware of an equivalent tool for Pantone colors. But it can be created using this very tool with a table of pantone colors instead of a table of named css colors that it uses now.

    The idea was to create a tool to sort the named CSS colors in a way that it shows related colors together. So, next time I can't decide between a few CSS colors, I can just check them here side by side. I've created this tool last

    I'm sharing my read-list, as I go through it. Instead of sharing those manually on Twitter, I thought it would be cool to have a Tumblr mirror, and even its own website and update these places automatically once I add a new link. So, I
