Dark Orange — 11-step color scale

Dark Orange (#ff8c00) sits at 500, untouched. Every other step is Dark Orange 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.#ff8c00

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

Semantic colors from Dark Orange

Success, warning, error and the rest are derived from Dark Orange 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 #ff8c00

Suggested	Protanopia	Deuteranopia	Tritanopia
success#76c648	8.5	6.8	55.5
warning#ff7c7c	19.0	13.9	3.7
error#f97acb	49.1	41.6	8.4
discovery#81adff	54.4	58.0	66.1
info#00c3db	43.9	49.7	61.3
neutral#8c8173	23.2	27.2	22.9

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 Dark Orange under Tritanopia — ΔE₀₀ 3.7, below the 11 threshold — so the engine shifts its hue within the warning family until the pair pulls apart again.
