Material Design Palette Generator is a VSCode extension to generate a material color palette within VSCode itself.

Usage

There are a couple of ways to launch the material design palette generator

1. Execute Material Design Palette Generator command from the VSCode command palette
2. Click on the Material Palette icon in the status bar (bottom gutter)

Features

The palettes generated are based on Material Design standards, and use Google's algorithm for color derivation.

Acknowledgement and Credits

The idea to create a VSCode extension for generating the material palettes was inspired from material-palette-generator by Michael Edelstone. Michael was considerate enough to have extracted the inline generator tool from within the Material docs and provide it to the world with some interface improvements. I've used his project as a base and adapted it to be used as a VSCode extension.
