This example displays a grid of named CSS colors, each rendered as a rounded rectangle with its name printed in bold text. The visualization uses a static CSV file (`colours2.csv`) containing color names, and the D3.js library to create an SVG element for each entry. The code places each color swatch and label sequentially, using D3’s `select`, `append`, and `attr` methods to build the layout. It also applies a text-shadow class to improve label legibility, and the resulting page is a reference guide for color names usable in web contexts.

AI-generated description

This is an example of the range of available named colours that can be used in d3.js. In this example I have used colour groupings that keep similar colours together. These are not quite all the available colours, but there's only a few missing.

Advice can be found on-line that not all browsers will render them correctly. I have tested with Chrome and Firefox and found them suitably visible.

These are used as references and described in the book D3 Tips and Tricks.

Colours Page

This example displays a grid of color swatches, each labeled with its corresponding named color value. It uses the d3.csv function to load color names from a CSV file and then creates an SVG for each entry. Each SVG contains a rounded rectangle filled with the color, a text label with a white shadow for readability, and a bold black text overlay showing the color's name.

Colours Page

A gallery of CSS color names rendered as a grid of rounded rectangles, each labeled with its own name. The page reads a CSV file listing color names and displays them grouped by hue families. Using D3 v6 and SVG, the code appends a small `<svg>` per color, fills a rectangle with the named color via the `style` property, and adds a text label with a white shadow for legibility. The layout is a simple vertical list rather than a compact mosaic, and a few colors are omitted from the source data.

Colours Page

This gallery page displays a catalog of named CSS colors in D3.js, with similar hues grouped together. Each color name is rendered as a labeled, rounded rectangle using SVG. The code loads color names from `colours2.csv` via `d3.csv`, then uses `container.append("svg")` and `.append("rect")` and `.append("text")` to build each swatch, applying a white text shadow for legibility. The example highlights the range of available web colors and offers a practical reference for selecting fill values.

Colours Page

A gallery of SVG color swatches displays every named CSS/SVG color from a local CSV file. Each color is shown as a rounded rectangle with its name overlaid in bold, shadowed text. The d3.csv method loads the data, and d3 selections append one SVG per color with appended rect and text elements, using white strokes for label legibility. All colors render as individual static tiles in the browser.

CSS Colour List

This example displays a list of all named CSS colours, rendered as a large, centered title on a plain white page. The visualization is minimal, showing only the text “CSS Colours” without any graphical encoding of the colour values themselves. The code fetches a CSV file containing the colour names from a GitHub gist and parses it using `d3.csvParse`, but the parsed data is only logged to the console and not used for any visual output. The page uses D3 v6 for data loading, with the body styled at a font size of 13em to emphasize the title.

CSS Colours

This example visualizes the 148 named CSS colours by fetching and parsing a CSV file of colour names and values from a remote gist. It uses `fetch` to retrieve the data and `d3.csvParse` to convert the raw text into structured rows, then logs the file size, row count, and column count to the browser console. The page is a minimal HTML document that loads D3 v7 from a CDN and embeds all logic in a script tag, demonstrating a straightforward data-loading pipeline without any graphical rendering.

colors2

This visualization displays all named CSS colors as large text elements, one per color, with each word rendered in its corresponding hue. The page uses a simple centered layout with an oversized font size to showcase the color names. The code fetches a CSV file of CSS color names and their RGB values from a GitHub gist, then parses it using D3’s `csv` method. The D3 library is loaded via a CDN, and the fetch API retrieves the data asynchronously before rendering the results on the page.

CSS Named Colors

This visualization displays all named CSS colors as a grid of squares, colored according to their RGB hex values, with each square labeled by its color name. The data comes from a CSV file listing colors across CSS Level 1, Level 2.1, and Color Module Level 3 specifications. Using D3.js, the visualization binds the color data to SVG rect elements and applies the fill color from the RGB hex column. The layout arranges colors in a structured grid, making it easy to compare hue, saturation, and lightness across the entire CSS color palette.
