Shades</h3><p><b>Adding black</b> in varying levels to a color produces gradually darker variants, or “shades,” of that particular color. Shades work well for link hover effects, or as footer and header backgrounds.</p><h3>Color Tints</h3><p>Color tints are made by <b>adding white to a color</b>, resulting in increasingly lighter versions. Tints can also be used for <a href="/blog/css-link-color/">CSS hover effects</a>, and perform nicely as modal backgrounds.</p><h3>Color Tones</h3><p>Tones are created by <b>adding gray to a color</b>, and produces an almost endless variety of colors depending on what level of gray is used. Less common in web design, tones could be useful for typographic elements like comments, quotes or highlights.</p><h2 id="primary-secondary-and-tertiary-colors">Primary, Secondary and Tertiary Colors</h2><p>The color wheel is made up of 12 distinct colors, which are subsequently divided into the following three groups: <b>primary colors</b> (3), <b>secondary colors</b> (3) and <b>tertiary colors</b> (6).</p><figure class="w-full h-auto mt-7 mb-6 border border-neutral-200 rounded-xl bg-white p-4 sm:p-6 sm:hidden"><img alt="Color Wheel: Primary, Secondary and Tertiary Colors (Small) [en]" loading="lazy" width="960" height="1600" decoding="async" data-nimg="1" class="block w-full h-auto" style="color:transparent" sizes="(min-width: 1024px) 621px, 100vw" srcSet="https://colorcodes.imgix.net/7vLu1kQXslYIlyz9kPBwzP/79725c6b039adc2ace25c0e67dc5aed4/html-color-codes-color-wheel-primary-secondary-tertiary--small.png?w=640&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format,compress 640w, https://colorcodes.imgix.net/7vLu1kQXslYIlyz9kPBwzP/79725c6b039adc2ace25c0e67dc5aed4/html-color-codes-color-wheel-primary-secondary-tertiary--small.png?w=750&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format,compress 750w, https://colorcodes.imgix.net/7vLu1kQXslYIlyz9kPBwzP/79725c6b039adc2ace25c0e67dc5aed4/html-color-codes-color-wheel-primary-secondary-tertiary--small.png?w=768&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format,compress 768w, https://colorcodes.imgix.net/7vLu1kQXslYIlyz9kPBwzP/79725c6b039adc2ace25c0e67dc5aed4/html-color-codes-color-wheel-primary-secondary-tertiary--small.png?w=828&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format,compress 828w, https://colorcodes.imgix.net/7vLu1kQXslYIlyz9kPBwzP/79725c6b039adc2ace25c0e67dc5aed4/html-color-codes-color-wheel-primary-secondary-tertiary--small.png?w=1080&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format,compress 1080w, https://colorcodes.imgix.net/7vLu1kQXslYIlyz9kPBwzP/79725c6b039adc2ace25c0e67dc5aed4/html-color-codes-color-wheel-primary-secondary-tertiary--small.png?w=1200&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format,compress 1200w, https://colorcodes.imgix.net/7vLu1kQXslYIlyz9kPBwzP/79725c6b039adc2ace25c0e67dc5aed4/html-color-codes-color-wheel-primary-secondary-tertiary--small.png?w=1280&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format,compress 1280w, https://colorcodes.imgix.net/7vLu1kQXslYIlyz9kPBwzP/79725c6b039adc2ace25c0e67dc5aed4/html-color-codes-color-wheel-primary-secondary-tertiary--small.png?w=1366&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format,compress 1366w, https://colorcodes.imgix.net/7vLu1kQXslYIlyz9kPBwzP/79725c6b039adc2ace25c0e67dc5aed4/html-color-codes-color-wheel-primary-secondary-tertiary--small.png?w=1440&amp;q=60&amp;auto=format,compress 1440w, https://colorcodes.imgix.net/7vLu1kQXslYIlyz9kPBwzP/79725c6b039adc2ace25c0e67dc5aed4/html-color-cod
