Integrating HUSL (perceptually uniform colors) into Sass

[Alexei Boronine]

Hi guys,

I'm the creator of HUSL (www.husl-colors.org) and this morning I got the news that it is ported to Ruby (courtesy of Radu-Bogdan Croitoru).

I believe CSS preprocessors are one of the best use cases for my project, allowing to define pleasing color palettes without worrying about unpredictable contrast the way you do with HSL. Here is a demo: http://www.husl-colors.org/syntax/

I am not a Rubyist, so I have some high-level questions for the Sass community: would you find HUSL support useful? Do you want just a single husl(h, s, l) function or a suite of perceptually uniform color functions? Should HUSL be integrated into vanilla Sass or a higher-level framework like Compass or Bourbon? Where do you think it belongs?

Needless to say, I'd love any implementation help I can get, but even for a few words of guidance I'd be very grateful.

Thanks,

Alexei

This is very cool. The core Sass implementation doesn't add new color spaces to avoid stepping on the toes of CSS, but it should be possible to create a library that people could opt into.

Yeah, this could be a really interesting Sass library...
