<h1>Color swatches generated with Sass</h1>
<p>This demo includes only the styles needed to generate the colours, so you should be able to drop the markup and Sass/CSS into your project without conflict. Please note though, this isn't intended to be used in production environments <em>this is a development tool</em> to help you quickly find colours for your project.</em></p>
<h2>Complement colour</h2>
<p>The exact opposite of your base colour, useful for delivering contrast but needs to be used with care. <em>Never</em> set copy in your complement colour against a background of your base colour, or vice-versa.</em></p>

The crux of this proposal is the removal of the initimate connection between Joomla's core and third-party libraries on which it relies, in order to provide independence and robustness to each, enabling greater flexibility and strength in Joomla. Hopefully the benefits are largely self-evident.

There are really only a couple of key components to this proposal which, while they may proving challenging to implemnent, should conceptually be easy to grasp;

1. PROTECT THE INTEGRITY OF THIRD-PARTY ASSETS
2. CONFINE VENDOR-SPECIFIC CODE TO VENDOR-SPECIFIC IMPLEMENTATIONS
______________________________________________

1. PROTECT THE INTEGRITY OF THIRD-PARTY ASSETS
There's little point in adopting a popular library, like Bootstrap or jQuery, if it is then adapted in-situ. It is, at that point, no longer the popular third-party library that was adopted, it is a derivative. The burden of maintaining, supporting and developing such derivatives then falls the to Joomla project and this is a burden that can ill be affor
