Color names

HTML and CSS describe a list of color names that may be used instead of HEX values or similar. The HTML colors are also available in Skybrud.Colors via the static HtmlColors class.

The example below shows how to reference a blue and a red color respectively:

@using Skybrud.Colors
@using Skybrud.Colors.Html

@{

    // Get a reference to a blue color
    RgbColor blue = HtmlColors.Blue;

    // Outputs "RGB: 0, 0, 255"
    <pre>@blue</pre>

    // Get a reference to a blue color
    RgbColor red = HtmlColors.Red;

    // Outputs "RGB: 255, 0, 0"
    <pre>@red</pre>

}

You can see the HtmlColors for a list of all supported color names.

Color groups

The HtmlColorGroups class also describes various groups - eg. HtmlColorGroups.Blue contains 25 colors that can best described as being blue, and HtmlColorGroups.Red contains 9 colors that can best be described as being red:

@using Skybrud.Colors
@using Skybrud.Colors.Html

<h2>Blue</h2>
<ul>
    @foreach (RgbColor color in HtmlColorGroups.Blue) {
        <pre>@color</pre>
    }
</ul>

<h2>Red</h2>
<ul>
    @foreach (RgbColor color in HtmlColorGroups.Red) {
        <pre>@color</pre>
    }
</ul>

The color groups are as following:

• HtmlColorGroups.Red
