Description
Simple methods to generate attractive random colors. The random colors are from a wrapper of 'randomColor.js' <https://github.com/davidmerfield/randomColor>. In addition, it also generates optimally distinct colors based on k-means (inspired by 'IWantHue' <https://github.com/medialab/iwanthue>).
