How to choose a good color palette for a website?
A good website color palette typically includes 1–2 primary colors, 1 accent color, and 2–3 neutral tones. A popular starting point is the 60-30-10 rule: 60% dominant color, 30% secondary, and 10% accent color. Remember to also ensure contrast ratio to guarantee text readability.
