A deep dive into CSS color-mix()

From the creator

Another feature making its way in from preprocessors like Sass, we can now mix colors in CSS! In this one, I go over the basics of how it works, look at how we can play with the percentages, what happens when the percentages are below 100% total, how the different color models work, and how we can mix colors in different directions (which doesn’t sound like it should be a thing, but it is 😅). I also take a very quick look at how we can create color schemes by using color-mix() as well, to help show a little bit of a more practical example of it in action. 🔗 Links ✅ Browser support for color-mix(): https://caniuse.com/mdn-css_types_color_color-mix ✅ All the codepens from this video: https://codepen.io/collection/BNOMbj ✅ CSS color-mix() on the Chrome Developers Blog: https://developer.chrome.com/blog/css-color-mix/ ✅ CSS color-mix() MDN article: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/color_value/color-mix ✅ More on the different color models: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/color_value#rgb_color_model ⌚ Timestamps 00:00 - Introduction 00:30 - The very basics 02:20 - Mixing specific percentages of each color 04:00 - When the percentages don’t equal 100% 05:35 - The color models 08:40 - lab, oklab, lch, and oklch 10:25 - mixing colors in different directions 14:32 - Creating a color scheme with color-mix( #css -- Come hang out with other dev's in my Discord Community 💬 https://discord.gg/nTYCvrK Keep up to date with everything I'm up to ✉ ht
