Color Lightener
Adjust one color with an editable color panel supporting HEX, RGB, HSV and HSL fields and a pointer-based color selector. The default base is #22A06B and the lightening percentage defaults to 20 on a 0 to 100 slider.
Run the generation action after choosing the base and percentage. The algorithm linearly interpolates each RGB channel toward white: output = channel + (255-channel)*percentage/100, with rounded byte values. This is not an HSL lightness increment or linear-light color operation.
For #000000 at 50%, the output is #808080. At 0% the original is retained, and at 100% it becomes #FFFFFF. Out-of-range percentages are clamped and non-finite values are rejected.
The generated result is an editable color panel; changing its fields updates the current color. Clear restores #22A06B and 20% and empties the result. Output includes color values that can be copied.
Processing is browser-local and changes a single color, not uploaded image pixels. It does not measure accessibility contrast, preserve alpha or guarantee a usable text/background pair.
For #3B82F6 at 20%, the result is #629BF8. Generate again uses the base color, not the previous result. Color fields commit when you leave them; invalid HEX text reverts to the last valid color. Copy all copies the original color, percentage and current HEX summary, not all numeric panel fields. Select a field to copy its individual value. There is no file input or download. The native percentage slider uses integer steps.
