A Vim plugin that highlights CSS color names, hex codes, and rgb()/rgba()/hsl() values inline so users can preview colors while editing. It is context-sensitive and supports many syntaxes including CSS, Less, Sass, JavaScript, Python, VimL, and various config file formats.

Use cases

• preview css colors in vim while editing
• highlight hex color codes in source code
• see color swatches for rgb and hsl values in vim
• color highlighting for sass and less files in vim
• show inline color previews in javascript or python files
• fast color name highlighter for vim and neovim

When to choose

• you edit CSS, Sass, Less, or config files with color values in Vim or NeoVim
• you want fast, context-sensitive inline color previews without leaving the editor
• you work in 256-color terminals and need accurate color rendering

When to avoid

• you use VS Code or another editor with built-in color preview extensions
• you need a standalone color picker or design tool rather than editor highlighting
• you don't use Vim-family editors
