Overview
Derived Colors is a Flutter/Dart package that enables developers to generate color variants from a base color using predefined derivation rules. It simplifies the creation of consistent color palettes by automatically producing lighter, darker, brighter, or more saturated versions. Ideal for dynamic UIs requiring theme adaptability, it supports all major platforms including Android, iOS, Web, macOS, Windows, and Linux. The package integrates seamlessly with Flutter’s color system and enhances design consistency across applications.
