Are we allowed to use the colorscheme from here on cohost elsewhere? If so, what are the official hex codes?
they’re colors. who do you think i am, pantone? of course you can use them. just don’t pretend you’re us.
i don’t have the hex codes committed to memory and i don’t want to open the codebase right now but you can inspect element that shit
You should set an explicit text color on “not white” and “longan” because they’re unreadable/barely readable in dark mode. (Great job cohost having a per-post toggle!)
if anyone wants to copy/paste it right into their CSS, here they are as custom properties:
html {
--notWhite: #FFF9F2;
--notBlack: #191919;
--cherry: #83254F;
--strawberry: #E56B6F;
--mango: #FFAB5C;
--longan: #FFD8A8;
}
i've always enjoyed the colors here. that and the logo makes it feel like old spot-color commercial literature from the 60s
It's hard to make something that feels unique while still working as a canvas for almost anything people want to do on it, but cohost nailed that.
