Tailwind's default color palette is excellent and works well for the most part. However, I found myself configuring projects with the reasonable colors palette due to the easier accessibility reasonable colors offer. To avoid copying and pasting the same config over and over, I packaged this as a plugin. PRs open and contributions welcome 🍻

• Run npm i tailwind-reasonable-colors to install the package.
• The package comes in two flavors: enhance and override.
  • enhance adds the reasonable colors palette to the existing palette without causing clashes. All added colors come prefixed with an r. So pink becomes rpink and can be used, for example, via bg-rpink-400.
  • override simply overwrites color names, but otherwise leaves the existing tailwind palette intact.
  • enhanceFull does the same thing enhance does, but adds missing variations for 50, 700, 800 and 900 in the palette. Generated via https://color-scheme-builder.vercel.app.
  • overrideFull does the same thing override does, but adds missing variations for 50, 700, 800 and 900 in the palette. Generated via https://color-scheme-builder.vercel.app.
