Flat colors taken from Google's Material Design: Paper.
UIColor+BFPaperColors is a category for UIColor that adds class methods to conveniently produce over 240 new colors designed for flat or semi-flat interface designs by Google's Material Design Labs.
Please refer to this CHANGELOG.md.
Add the UIColor+BFPaperColors header and implementation file to your project. (.h & .m)
After doing that, it is a simple as calling:[UIColor paperColorXXXXX]
(where XXXXX is the color of your choice). Each paper color method is prefixed with the words "paperColor" for easy recognition in Xcode's code complete. All colors have a wide range of shades, noted by a number suffix. For example, A very light blue could be [UIColor paperColorLightBlue100]
while a darker shade could be [UIColor paperColorLightBlue700]
.
view.backgroundColor = [UIColor paperColorCyan600];
