What it does

Describing the world around us is what we do. If you’re in search of more creative color names than the basic "red" or "green" you’re in luck! Color names with color codes listed over 2490 colors with hex code and color name sample.

  • A color name API that maps hex to the closest human-readable name2025 · meodai.github.io · ▲97

It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
