Contributing

Feel free to add your own color schemes, as soon as they meet these requirements :

• All colors schemes should be created in the src/colors directory
• They must only contain one array, named $colors
• Each item of this array must have one key, and these three values :
  • reference
  • name
  • hexa
• The key should be a camelCase version of the color's name
• reference and name are not mandatory
• The hexa key is mandatory, it should contain the hexadecimal value of the color, prefixed with a sharp (#).
