Palettes

Color palettes

A Color Palette is a list of colors. Various configurations in the Portal allow a developer to provide a color palette that can be used to color some parts of the interface. Defining these colors in a palette ensures you can consistently apply the same colors throughout the Portal and adjust them in one place if needed.
