# Palette Picker

## Summary

Custom Property Pane pain resolved (whew), color palette generator inspired by [Jhey](https://codepen.io/jh3y/pen/rNjbmBQ?editors=0011).
Built it to get an understanding of [Property Pane Portal](https://www.npmjs.com/package/property-pane-portal) and cuz I want to eventually build in a dynamic palette generator/css reader for my web parts.
