Function: chartPalette()

chartPalette(accent, count): string[]

count colours derived from accent, index-stable.

Falls back to the packaged eight when the accent cannot be read — an unthemed grid, or a custom theme whose --dg-primary is something this cannot parse (a named colour, color-mix(), oklch()). Falling back is deliberate: a chart with the wrong-but-readable palette beats a chart of black shapes.

A near-grey accent also falls back. Rotating the hue of something with almost no saturation produces eight indistinguishable greys, which is worse than an off-theme palette that can actually be told apart.

Parameters

accent

string | null | undefined

number

string[]
