Flexoki 2.0 introduces 88 new colors that feel like watercolor pigments on paper. This is a continuation of my attempt to bring the feeling of analog color to digital emissive screens. Flexoki 1.0 only provided the a range of values for the grayscale colors. What I have been working to solve since then is how to expand the palette to a full range of values for every color, without desaturating the pigment effect. I'm very happy with how this turned out. Flexoki is open source under the MIT license, and already available for most text editors, terminals, and many other apps. Flexoki 2.0 makes it into a more capable color system for UIs and more complex projects. stephango.com/flexoki

I learned, and loved the LAB color gamut when I was in college for print. Similarly, flexography was one of the more fun printing processes I got to work with. Really digging those connections, and I love the thought you've put into this color system. As someone who has spent many hours building color palettes and color ramps manually, I can see how much love and labor has gone into this. Bravo. (PS added to my Figma resource files)
