Tailcolors, a TailwindCSS Color Palette

Hey HN, I built tailcolors.com — a TailwindCSS color palette where you can click to copy any Tailwind color class. I'm a longtime Tailwind user and I've tried some similar tools, but none supported v4 colors or the new oklch variants. Tailcolors has both! You can easily copy the 50-950 variants of each color by clicking on them, plus optionally toggle between copying the raw Tailwind class, a hex code, or the oklch property. Enjoy!

Tailcolors, a TailwindCSS Color Palette launched on January 28, 2025 with 12 votes, #1,233 of 6,142 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 1 year on.

In plain words

Tailcolors is a web tool for developers that displays TailwindCSS color palettes with one-click copying functionality. It supports Tailwind v4 colors and oklch color variants, and allows users to copy color information in multiple formats: Tailwind class names, hex codes, or oklch properties. The tool covers all 50-950 color variants for each color in the palette.

  • Talanoa▲346

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. 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. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

    Tetris in a PDF▲1,289

    I realized that the PDF engines of modern desktop browsers (PDFium and PDF.js) support JavaScript with enough I/O primitives to make a basic game like Tetris. It was a bit tricky to find a union of features that work in both engines, but in the end it turns out that showing/hiding annotation "fields" works well to make monochrome pixels, and keyboard input can be achieved by typing in a text input box. All in all it's quite janky but a nice reminder of how general purpose PDF scripting can be. The linked PDF is all ASCII so you can just open it in a text editor, or have a look at…

    I originally built this app to organize and reuse interesting React + Tailwind components I came across on Twitter, inspired by the shadcn/ui approach. Later, a friend started contributing their own components, and it got me thinking—this could grow into something bigger, like an NPM for design engineers to share and use components. Would love to hear your thoughts!
