What Is a Tailwind Color Palette?
Tailwind v4 ships 22 hue families (slate, gray, zinc, neutral, stone, red, orange, amber, yellow, lime, green, emerald, teal, cyan, sky, blue, indigo, violet, purple, fuchsia, pink, rose) and 11 shades each, from `-50` (lightest) through `-500` (canonical base) to `-950` (darkest). v4 moved color definitions into the OKLCH-based default theme for more perceptually-uniform steps; the visible hex is the OKLCH value rendered into sRGB.
Front-end engineers use the palette as a ready-made design-token set; designers pair it with their own brand color; technical writers grab specific shades for example screenshots.
Use this page when you need a hex for a context that doesn't speak Tailwind — a CMS, an email template, a Figma file, or a non-Tailwind framework. Filter by hue family to narrow the grid, then click any swatch to copy.
