The implementation is very straight forward:

  1. Maintain a color name dictionary (color name vs color value)
  2. Calculate color deltas between querying color and those in the dict
  3. Output colors with smallest deltas

There's a library for this: http://chir.ag/projects/ntc/

Since this hasn't garnered much interest over the years, maybe it could be closed? (or moved to discussions, though you'd have to enable that for this repo first).

By closing some old issues we reduce the list of open issues to a more manageable set.

I generally agree that we should not build out this functionality and instead leave it to its own community package.

@sandstrom I've noticed you've left this comment on a few of the issues on the repo - are you willing/wanting to contribute to the project at all? I'd be happy to do a 1:1 convo call to walk through what we need help with if you'd like

@crutchcorn Thanks for asking!

I looked at this a few months ago, because we were thinking about using it. We still haven't, though we may in the future.

Since we aren't actively using it now, and I'm quite busy with the company I'm running, I don't think I have time right now, sorry.

But happy if I could help out with some issue gardening 🌱🌿 🌷. This is an awesome library!
