As easier alternative is to set, e.g. --quiet-primary-seed to any 500-level color but the generated palette won't match perfectly. The CodePen uses the exact palette (without the 150 and 850 steps).

I recently released a side project called Quiet UI. It's, perhaps unexpectedly, a component library. This begs the question:

“another UI library? But why?”

Quiet uses color-mix() and OKLAB to generate perceptually uniform color palettes from a single CSS custom property.

The built-in presets are each just one line of CSS. Check out the theming docs to learn more.

/* Custom orange theme */
:root {
--quiet-primary-seed: #e98d61;
