Chocolate — 11-step color scale

Chocolate (#d2691e) sits at 500, untouched. Every other step is Chocolate composited over white or black at a decreasing opacity, so the whole ramp stays in one hue family instead of drifting toward another color at the ends.

Each step is the base composited over white or black at the opacity shown.#d2691e

For text that needs to pass AA on white, 600, 700, 800, 900, 950 clear the 4.5:1 line. On a dark surface, 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500 do.

Semantic colors from Chocolate

Success, warning, error and the rest are derived from Chocolate itself, then checked so they stay distinguishable from the base — and from each other — under the three types of color blindness. The distance below is CIEDE2000 after each simulation.

Derived from #d2691e

Suggested	Protanopia	Deuteranopia	Tritanopia
success#15a55d	12.8	12.3	62.1
warning#fd7e7d	18.9	14.0	8.7
error#c85fa3	44.6	37.7	9.0
discovery#6f80e7	55.5	57.4	60.1
info#0099c1	45.9	49.7	57.9
neutral#84766c	19.7	21.7	21.6

CIEDE2000 distance from the base under each simulation. The lowest of the three decides, and a dot marks the ones that land under 11.

The warning suggestion starts out colliding with Chocolate under Tritanopia — ΔE₀₀ 8.7, below the 11 threshold — so the engine shifts its hue within the warning family until the pair pulls apart again.
