How to use it
Suggested roles: #D2AFFE as the background, #7E8FFC for cards and surfaces, #3D75E8 as the primary brand color, #B19BFB as the accent, and #081C2C for text (a computed darker shade of Slate, because no palette color is readable on that background). A reliable starting split is 60% background and surface, 30% primary and 10% accent.
Let one hue lead and let the others support it. Keep one color noticeably lighter or darker than the rest so the layout has a clear focal point.
