convert_colorConverts any CSS color to oklch(), hex and rgb, formatted like Tailwind (oklch() is what Tailwind v4 uses). Colors outside a format are mapped into it: oklch() to Display P3 like Tailwind's palette, hex and rgb to sRGB. Use it for one value; to add a color with all its shades, call generate_palette instead.Not declaredYesYesNo
find_closest_tailwind_colorFinds the shade in Tailwind's default palette that looks most like a given color, e.g. #db4d53 -> red-500. Use it to pick an existing Tailwind class (bg-red-500) instead of an arbitrary value. If the difference is visible, use generate_palette to add the exact color as a custom palette instead.Not declaredYesYesNo
generate_paletteGenerates a full Tailwind CSS palette (50-950) from one color, ready to paste. Call it whenever you add a color to a Tailwind theme (e.g. "add a brand color #db4d53"), instead of writing a single variable or inventing shades. The input color stays exactly at its best-fit shade, and the other shades follow the closest Tailwind color, so they look like Tailwind's own.Not declaredYesYesNo
get_tailwind_paletteLooks up Tailwind's own default colors, exactly as Tailwind defines them: a whole color (e.g. "blue", all shades) or one shade (e.g. "slate-500"), for Tailwind v4, v3, v2 or v1. Use it instead of writing default Tailwind color values from memory. Values are oklch() in v4 and hex in older versions.Not declaredYesYesNo
list_tailwind_colorsLists the names of Tailwind's default colors for a Tailwind version (e.g. red, slate, mauve in v4), with the shades each one has and its 500 value as a sample. Use it to see which colors exist before calling get_tailwind_palette or picking a utility class.Not declaredYesYesNo
