kandi X-RAY | color-names Summary

color-names is a C library. color-names has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities and it has low support. However color-names has a Non-SPDX License. You can download it from GitHub.

These files are generated using a script which parses the list of colors on Wikipedia, here:. The script used is (poorly) written in Python and depends heavily on the input format as was copied and pasted from Wikipedia using Firefox into a plain text file. The script is named format-colors and can be found in the same directory as the data files. Run it at your own discretion. There’s a GNU Make file called makefile that just re-generates the data files when the input file is updated or the script is changed. You probably don’t need this file at all.

QUESTION

how many named colours are there in css?

Asked 2020-Dec-23 at 16:09

On the w3Schools website I counted 148 colours, however a a quick Google search sais that there are 147 whereas this website says that modern browsers support 140 named colours which I suspect is incorrect and this website says that all browsers support the following 147.

So what's the correct answer? And which colour in the W3Schools link is the colour that shouldn't be there?

Well the w3c standard is clear about that (https://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/types.html#ColorKeywords) the colors are:

How to approximate colors

Asked 2020-Aug-06 at 19:33

We have a list like this https://htmlcolorcodes.com/color-names/ with come colors named. I want a function that will game some random hex color value and approximate it to one of those named colors. How can I achieve this?

When I understood you correctly you want to a function which:

Generates a random color
Finds the nearest color in the linked list

Is it correct? If so, I would recommend to work with the RGB value and then I would create my own metric to measure the distance between two colors like:

QUESTION

Is there a performance difference between the different css color formats

Asked 2020-Apr-06 at 02:07

There are many formats to define a color in css:

Hexadecimal colors: #FFF or #fff
RGB colors: rgb(255, 255, 255)
RGBA colors: rgba(255, 255, 255, 1)
HSL colors: hsl(0, 100%, 100%)
HSLA colors: hsl(0, 100%, 100%, 1)
Predefined/Cross-browser color names: white

But are there differences in performance between these different formats? For example, does the browser take longer to understand that it has to render white pixels for color rgb(255, 255, 255) than for color #FFF?

I know that there are already similar questions on SO such as these:

But none of them really provide an answer when it comes to performance on the browser side.

So could someone enlighten me on how browsers handle these different formats?

From what I read in the article I linked below using HEX code is better but not by much we are talking if you have 100,000 colors in your code then it will create 1ms difference between them.

but you can visit this link to get a more meaning full understanding of why is doesn't make that much of a difference

and to see if it really makes a difference run an audit on your website and see the performance difference for each and see which one is better if any. Link to answer
