Colors

Unlike regular markdown, ken allows document authors to use colors in various places (e.g., with highlights and in tables).

Colors are specified in one of five forms:

  1. Using any of the 140 color names recognized by modern browsers. These names are not case-sensitive. Example: red, cornflowerblue
  2. By 6-char RGB hex, without the # prefix. Example: ff7f50 (Coral)
  3. By 3-char RGB triple, without the # prefix. Example: 808 (Purple)
