Check Color Palettes for Problems with Color Vision Deficiency

v1.0.4 · Oct 9, 2025 · MIT + file LICENSE

Description

Compare color palettes with simulations of color vision deficiencies - deuteranopia, protanopia, and tritanopia. It includes calculation of distances between colors, and creating summaries of differences between a color palette and simulations of color vision deficiencies. This work was inspired by the blog post at <https://www.datawrapper.de/blog/colorblind-check>.
