Using Material Teal 900

Material Teal 900 works best when it is chosen with contrast, surrounding colors, and interface state in mind. Use the HEX value for static CSS, RGB when you need channel-level control, and HSL when adjusting lightness or saturation for hover states. The CMYK value is an approximate screen-to-print conversion, so print workflows should still rely on calibrated design software or a printer profile.

CSS, SCSS, and Tailwind examples

.button-primary {
  background: var(--color-material-teal-900);
  color: #000000;
}

$material-teal-900: #85cdc6;

// Tailwind arbitrary value
