Color Presets

Color presets are predefined sets of colors used in design and development to ensure consistency, accessibility, and brand alignment across digital products. They typically include primary, secondary, and accent colors, often with variations for light and dark modes, and are implemented in tools like design systems, CSS frameworks, or graphic software. This helps streamline workflows by providing reusable color schemes that maintain visual harmony.

Also known as: Color Schemes, Color Palettes, Theme Colors, Design Tokens (for colors), CSS Variables (when used for colors)
🧊Why learn Color Presets?

Developers should learn and use color presets when building user interfaces, websites, or applications to enforce design consistency, improve accessibility (e.g., meeting WCAG contrast ratios), and speed up development by reducing manual color selection. Specific use cases include implementing brand guidelines in web projects, creating themes for multi-platform apps, or ensuring color coherence in design systems like Material-UI or Tailwind CSS.
