Frequently Asked Technical Questions

How much does ChromaFlow cost to deploy?

ChromaFlow is completely free and unthrottled. There are no premium features hidden behind paywalls or monthly usage limits. The development and maintenance of this color engine are entirely funded via non-intrusive Google AdSense advertising inventory slots.

Why do I need to keep an active internet connection if data processing is client-side?

While all color calculations and asset exports run entirely within your local browser sandbox, the system pulls design assets dynamically from verified, high-speed content delivery networks (CDNs). An active network link is required to initialize the page layout grid frameworks and render typography structures correctly.

How does the WCAG compliance validator calculate contrast ratios?

The system uses the standard W3C relative luminance conversion loop: $$Y = 0.2126 \cdot R_{sRGB} + 0.7152 \cdot G_{sRGB} + 0.0722 \cdot B_{sRGB}$$ This formula calculates the luminance threshold difference between your selected color and the background layer to yield an accurate contrast ratio ranging from 1:1 up to 21:1.

How do I import the downloaded .ase files into Adobe Creative Cloud?

Open your target Adobe application and locate the **Swatches Panel**. Click the flyout options menu icon, choose **Load Swatches** (or **Open Swatch Library > Other Library**), and select your downloaded `.ase` configuration payload. Your exact color schemes will instantly map across your design canvas.
