24 alternatives to Ember – Redshift safe color palettes

Most color palettes collapse if you've got a strong redshift/nightshift color filter actively suppressing green and blue channels. I made one that doesn't. Ember has terminal, chart, heatmap, and UI palettes designed and tested to be as distinguishable as possible under both the redshift & non-redshift condition... so no more duplicate color appearances (or worse yet, disappearing colors!).

Ember is a collection of color palettes designed for terminals, charts, heatmaps, and user interfaces that remain visually distinct when redshift or nightshift filters are active. Most standard color palettes become… Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes.

   I made a new AI colorizer▲472

   Hi HN, I’m Emil, the maker behind Palette. I’ve been tinkering with AI and colorization for about five years. This is my latest colorization model. It’s a text-based AI colorizer, so you can edit the colorizations with natural language. To make it easier to use, I also automatically create captions and generate filters. Let me know what you think. You can see some of my results on my reddit page: https://www.reddit.com/user/emilwallner/?sort=top

    Color Palette Pro▲151

    In 2023, I tried building dynamic color theming by programmatically rotating HSL values. The results weren't good—garish combinations, inconsistent luminosity, completely unusable for UI work. That kicked off a two-year (sporadic) rabbit hole into color theory like Josef Albers' "Interaction of Color," perceptual color spaces (OKLCH vs sRGB), and effects like Bezold-Brücke. I learned that programmatic palette generation is genuinely hard. Nothing beats a trained eye. But I carried on anyway and made the Color Palette Pro. What it does: It generates 6 palette types (analogous, complementary,…

    I am developing a type safe colorspace library for Rust▲12

    After two weeks of planning and figuring out how to manage conversions safely, I have finally published the first version of my crate :) It allows you to specify your own colortypes and easily use the same syntax for converting between your custom color types! I also started working on a custom image type that can do math :)
