[ajay-dhangar]

This sub-issue covers all CSS color-related documentation, including different color notations, color models, transparency formats, and basic-to-advanced gradient usage. Contributors will explain how each color model works, when to use it, and provide practical UI examples.

This issue includes the following files:

colors
├── color-names.mdx
