Excellent guide, Michael. As someone with an engineering background, I really appreciate when a system is designed with this level of elegance.
For me, the standout feature here is the /oklab interpolation. It's a small detail, but it shows a deep commitment to quality by addressing the "muddy" center that you sometimes get with standard RGB gradients. It's that kind of precision that makes a front-end framework truly robust.
This is a huge step up from manually writing gradient code. Thanks for laying it out so clearly.
