Re: [community-group] Loosen up the color type (#79)

@kaelig Can you elaborate on that?
There is no color technical reason that should be happening.

Was this a rounding error with floating point values, a bug in a tool,... ?
Which hex value?

> To solve it, we simply started using HEX across the board

This strategy can work for one team if they control all design and dev tools, but it doesn't scale well to the design tokens format.

Color conversions must be implemented well enough to avoid this issue.
I don't think it is an option to enforce hex everywhere for all eternity because one tool had a bug.

Ideally designers have freedom to use any tool and any color format that works best form them and this just works reliably in whatever output platform.
