# color-sorter

![Color sorter](https://repository-images.githubusercontent.com/142018423/f0333800-be49-11ea-8033-0e3df5daf1ab)

Sort CSS colors by hue, then by saturation. Black-grey-white colors (colors with

0% saturation) are shifted to the end. Fully transparent colors are placed at

the _very_ end.

This sorting algorithm is very opinionated and might not fit _your_ needs!

## Usage

```js

import { sortFn, sort } from "color-sorter";

var colors = ["#000", "red", "hsl(0, 10%, 60%)"];

var sorted = colors.sort(sortFn);

// Or:

// sorted = sort(colors)

// => sorted:

// [

//  'red',

//  'hsl(0, 10%, 60%)',

//  '#000'

// ]

```
