@kate just discovered it, very impressive!

Did you use HSL and then adjust luminance by hand? I wonder if LCH or OKLCH is easier to use for this sort of stuff, as its L component already corresponds to the perceived light.

@kytta I choose the lightest (yellow) and darkest (burgundy) colours, interpolated between them in the HCL colour space, and then adjusted them to 12-bit RGB colours while ensuring the HCL differences between neighbouring colours were still approximately constant across the palette

@kate @kytta first off, i think this is great.

Have you done any testing with it to see how distinguishable the various bands are for the common forms of color blindness?
