## Installation

```shell
npm install --save bw-color-blind-palette
```

## Usage

```sass
@import '~bw-color-blind-palette'

$green:     map-get( $bw-color-blind-palette, 'bluish-green' )

.your-class

    color:  $green
```

### Warning on name strings

Sass/SCSS recognizes color names and replaces them with their shortest values.

So this:
```sass
map-get( $bw-color-blind-palette, black )
```
may actually work like this and return null:
```sass
map-get( $bw-color-blind-palette, '#000' )
```
