Exporting a palette to Tailwind
A finished palette is useless if you have to retype it into a config by hand. Export turns the chosen direction into a set of tokens that drop straight into your project.
What gets exported
Every role - background, surface, primary, accent, text - is exported as its own variable, not as one flat list of hex codes. That way the palette stays meaningful in code, not just in the preview.
Formats
tailwind.config.js- theme extension with ready-made color namesCSS custom properties- variables like --color-accentJSON- for passing into a design system or Figma Tokens
Why not just hex codes
A flat list of colors doesn’t survive the next design tweak. Named roles do: if the accent changes, you don’t need to hunt down every place it was used directly.
