Orange Red — 11-step color scale

Orange Red (#ff4500) sits at 500, untouched. Every other step is Orange Red 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.#ff4500

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 Orange Red

Success, warning, error and the rest are derived from Orange Red 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 #ff4500

Suggested	Protanopia	Deuteranopia	Tritanopia
success#00ad78	20.2	19.3	67.6
warning#ff3e4e	12.4	6.6	2.3
error#bd1098	52.6	47.9	15.9
discovery#7f80ff	58.1	61.6	61.5
info#009fd5	50.5	54.3	62.6
neutral#8c7a73	21.2	24.2	24.7

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 Orange Red under Tritanopia — ΔE₀₀ 2.3, below the 11 threshold — so the engine shifts its hue within the warning family until the pair pulls apart again.
