1. What is DiscordColorways? What is Project Colorway? What is a Colorway?

Project Colorway is the goal to make websites easier to have a theming functionality. Project Colorway's API (WIP, will be released soon) and endpoints offer a simple way to handle "colorways", objects that define specific properties that allow for the API, or any sort of custom implementation to easily turn the 4 colors that these objects define into fully fledged CSS.

A colorway object looks something like this:

{  
    name: "Colorway",
    author: "dablulite",
    authorID: "582170007505731594",
    accent: "#7cacf8",
    primary: "#282828",
    secondary: "#474747",
    tertiary: "#3c3c3c",
    colors: ['accent', 'primary', 'secondary', 'tertiary']
}

{
    "dc-import": "", // The pre-built CSS of the colorway, specifically for Discord
}
