"Color-name" is a popular npm package that provides a comprehensive list of color names alongside their corresponding RGB values. The color values are based on the formal listing of named colors outlined by the W3C in the CSS Color Module Level 3. The package returns color values in an array, representing the RGB scale. This package can be helpful in rendering CSS named colors in JavaScript in a more readable and intuitive way.
Using "color-name" is straightforward. First, you need to install the package using npm with the command line instruction 'npm install color-name'. Once you have the package installed in your project, you can import it in your JavaScript file like so:
import colors from 'color-name';
This gives you access to the "colors" object which contains properties for all named colors. To retrieve a color value, simply call the color property on the colors object:
colors.red; // This would return [255,0,0]
This is a compact and efficient way of accessing color RGB values without having to remember them.
