@PKulkoRaccoonGang I think that code could be greatly simplified on this page since we use CSS variables now. Previously we used MeasuredItem component to render a div with specific className to the get div's color with browser API and display its value. This is redundant now since we know in advance which CSS variable is used to render each color, so we can get color value just by variable's name. E.g., Swatch component could be rewritten like this

const styles = getComputedStyle(document.body);

function Swatch({ name, colorClassName, isUnused }: ISwatch) {
  const computedValue = styles.getPropertyValue(name);
  return (
    <div className="d-flex align-items-center mb-2">
      <div
        className={classNames('p-3 mr-2 rounded', colorClassName, {
          'unused-level': isUnused,
        })}
      />
      <div style={{ lineHeight: 1 }} className="small">
        <code className="mb-0 d-block text-lowercase text-dark-700">
          {`var(${name})`}
        </code>
        <code style={{ fontSize: '65%' }} className="text-muted">
          {computedValue}
        </code>
      </div>
    </div>
  );
}

// usage example, note that you need to pass var's name to the "name" prop without wrapping it in 'var'
<Swatch name="--pgn-color-accent-a" colorClassName="bg-accent-a" />

I believe this lets you completely remove usages of MeasuredItem and Color components from this page and this is a good thing 🙂
Works for me at least

Also, there's something wrong with the borders

they render with same styles for some reason, although they should have different colors. I'll let you figure this one out on your own 😛

@PKulkoRaccoonGang I noticed you pushed a commit with my suggestions, but I still see issues with borders that I described above. Just reminding you in case you missed or forgot about that part. If you just didn't have time to look at that yet, that's ok 🙂

Also, deploy preview is failing now because you used getComputedStyle which is not defined during build. Probably need to check if it's defined before using it.

Left 1 comment alongside Viktor's feedback.

The only high-level feedback about the page I have might be about whether we can have the "accents" colors shown as the last color variants in the UI given there's only 2 of them (throws off the visual grid haha) and are generally less commonly used (non-blocking, can be deferred).
