What to inspect in the output

Check the actual text/background pairing rather than assuming every palette colour is readable. Contrast calculations for solid colours do not model gradients, photos or all visual accessibility needs.

Where this tool stops

Review the output before using it. Your original input is not changed.

Troubleshooting Brand palette & contrast

Inspect the result in the destination component or viewer. A declaration needs a valid CSS context; an image needs suitable dimensions; a sanitized SVG can lose unsupported features.
