-thcolor -- switch between color formats
-=======================================
+thcolor -- the touhey color management module
+=============================================
-This module defines the ``Color`` primitive. For more information, read the
-documentation accessible on `the official website`_.
+This module is a color management module made by `Thomas Touhey`_ (``th``
+is for ``touhey``) for the `textoutpc`_ project, a BBCode to HTML translation
+module. It provides the following features:
+- color management and conversions between formats (RGB, HSL, HWB, NCol, …).
+- text-to-color using close-to-CSS format.
+
+For more information, consult `the official website`_.
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+Converting an RGB color to HSL:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+ from thcolor import Color
+
+ color = Color(Color.Type.RGB, 55, 23, 224)
+ print(color.hsl())
+
+Converting a HSL color to RGB with an alpha value:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+ from thcolor import Color, Angle
+
+ alpha = 0.75
+ color = Color(Color.Type.HSL, Angle(Angle.Type.DEG, 180), 0.5, 1.0, alpha)
+ print(color.rgba())
+
+Converting a textual representation to the RGBA color components:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+ from thcolor import Color
+
+ color = Color.from_text("darker(10%, hsl(0, 1, 50.0%))")
+ print(color.rgba())
+
+Getting the CSS color representations (with compatibility for earlier CSS
+versions) from a textual representation:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+ from thcolor import Color
+
+ color = Color.from_text("gray(red( #123456 )/0.2/)")
+ for repres in color.css():
+ print(f"color: {repres}")
