final color = ColorFrom.code('#ff0000');

Generate a specific color from an object. Useful for creating colors for other objects (usernames).

final someObject = "does not have to be a string!";
final color = ColorFrom.object(someObject);

//called for the same object it always gives the same result
assert(ColorFrom.object(someObject) == ColorFrom.object(someObject)) ;

//you can limit the range of possible colors
ColorFrom.object(someObject,
    hueLowerLimit: 40, valueLowerLimit: 1, saturationUpperLimit: 1),

final color = Colors.red.lighten();
