v0.5.0

It’s been a while since our last release, so this is a big one!
Going forwards, we plan to make at least one release per month.

Heads ups

⚠️ Future breaking change

Color.js currently uses NaN values to represent CSS none (e.g. for achromatic colors).
However, CSS also now has a NaN value, which is currently impossible to represent in Color.js.
Therefore, In the next non-minor version, we will start using null to represent none.
If you have code that handles these values, you can prepare for the change by detecting which value is being used and using that instead of a hardcoded NaN:

const NONE_COORD = new Color("rgb(none none none)").coords[0].valueOf()

🆕 Color.js Discord server

We’ve just set up a Discord server so that people can help each other and discuss color science topics in a more immediate way. Join now!.
Do note we also have a Discussions section for more long-form help.

⬇️ 2 million downloads!

We’ve recently passed a big milestone: Color.js was downloaded 2 million times on npm!

New in v0.5.0

New Color Spaces

Improved compatibility with CSS:

  • Moving to a standard ---prefixed version for color spaces that are not built-in into CSS. To facilitate "upgrading" color spaces when they later get added to standard CSS, both ---prefixed and unprefixed versions of all color spaces are also accepted. Implemented by @jgerigmeyer in #407 and #439
  • Add support for more angle units (grad, rad and turn) improving compatibility with CSS, by @kleinfreund in #324
  • Add CSS gamut mapping algorithm by @jamesnw in #344 and #352
  • Remove gamut mapping from hsl(), hwb() and hsv() by @jamesnw in #331

Gamut mapping improvements

  • Support for HCT gamut mapping by @facelessuser in #420
  • toGamut extended to allow configuring the delta E method, the JND, and enabling white and black SDR clamp by @facelessuser in #420
  • Allow hsluv to be gamut mapped using the CSS algorithm by @lloydk in #431
  • Avoid needless two-step color conversion at the start of gamut mapping by @facelessuser in #426
  • Avoid round-trip to/from oklch in CSS mapping method for colors that are in gamut @jgerigmeyer in #455

Color space API improvements:

  • Color spaces can now override the heuristically determined color space used to check gamut via a gamutSpace parameter. Implemented by @lloydk in #369
  • Color spaces can now define a grammar for color() format. Implemented by @lloydk in #370
  • Support string ids in colorSpace.equals() by @LeaVerou in #413
  • Make the color space optional in getAll() by @LeaVerou in #413

Precision/accuracy improvements

Performance improvements

  • [deltaE] Speedup of 7th powers in DeltaE2000 by @dom1n1k in #340

Bug Fixes

  • Fix hue related mix issues by @facelessuser in #338
  • Accept "Lightness" for lab space first channel name by @jgerigmeyer in #348
  • Add CJS file to /fn entry and fix legacy builds by @jgerigmeyer in #349
  • [spaces/hsl] Better handling of negative saturation on very oog colors by @svgeesus in f20d78a
  • Fix toPrecision() (was off by one for fractional inputs) by @efergus in #384
  • Color serialization now defaults to percentage for lightness across all color spaces, by @LeaVerou in e36e183
  • Fix incorrect parsing of Jzazbz percentage values by @lloydk in #392
  • Fix Luv lightness coordinate name by @lloydk in #406
  • Ensure alpha is a number in Color constructor by @lloydk in #400
  • Workaround Next.js production bug in serialize by @lloydk in #421
  • Allow angle values for HCT hue coordinate by @lloydk in #418
  • Fix parsing of HSV color space by @lloydk in #430
  • Allow number values for HWB w/b coordinates by @lloydk in #464
  • Add missing CSS ids for a98rgb-linear, p3-linear, and prophoto-linear spaces for parsing and serialization by @jgerigmeyer in #439
  • Consistently allow any color types (string or object) throughout the codebase by @lloydk and @jgerigmeyer in #453, #451, #456, #457, and #461

TypeScript improvements

Website

Apps

  • [apps/gamut-mapping] New app to experiment with different gamut mapping algorithms and quickly see how wide a gamut a color requires by @LeaVerou
  • [apps/gradient] pin mavo to hotfix app by @clanghout in #359
  • [apps/picker] Use correct granularity in number input rather than 1 across all color spaces (by @sidewayss in #330)
  • [apps/convert] Up/down arrows to tweak color coordinates by @LeaVerou
