How to use it
Suggested roles: #EAA3FA as the background, #B84BBF for cards and surfaces, #F864DC as the primary brand color, #BE69D1 as the accent, and #231425 for text (a computed darker shade of Violet, because no palette color is readable on that background). A reliable starting split is 60% background and surface, 30% primary and 10% accent.
Use the lightest color for large areas, the mid tones for structure, and the darkest for text. Add contrast through lightness, since hue will not do it for you.
