Random color generator
Press the spacebar or click Generate for new colors. Lock the ones you like and they stay while the rest change.
How to use it
- Click Generate or press the spacebar to get new colors.
- Click Lock on any color to keep it; Generate only replaces unlocked colors.
- Choose how many colors you want, from 1 to 10.
- Click a hex code to copy it, or Copy all for the whole set. The page address updates, so you can share the set.
How it works
Each color picks its red, green and blue values at random from 0 to 255, so any of the 16.7 million screen colors can come up with equal chance.
Under each color you'll see the closest named color when one is near. That uses CIEDE2000, a formula for how different two colors look to people, not just how far apart their numbers are.

Questions
Can I get a random color palette that looks good together?
This tool picks colors independently, so they won't always match. Lock one you like, then use its color page for palettes built from it.
How do I keep a color I like?
Click Lock on it. Locked colors stay when you generate again; click again to unlock.
Can I share the colors?
Yes. The page address holds the current colors, so copying it from your browser shares exactly this set.
