-#+title:    :tools rgb
-#+subtitle: Creating color strings
-#+created:  May 06, 2020
-#+since:    21.12.0
-
-#+begin_quote
-  *This module is deprecated.* The module is too trivial to warrant a module.
-#+end_quote
-
-* Description :unfold:
-Highlights color hex values and names with the color itself, and provides tools
-to easily modify color values or formats.
-
-** Maintainers
-/This module has no dedicated maintainers./ [[doom-contrib-maintainer:][Become a maintainer?]]
-
-** Module flags
-/This module has no flags./
-
-** Packages
-- [[doom-package:kurecolor]]
-- [[doom-package:rainbow-mode]]
-
-** Hacks
-/No hacks documented for this module./
-
-* Installation
-[[id:01cffea4-3329-45e2-a892-95a384ab2338][Enable this module in your ~doom!~ block.]]
-
-/This module has no external requirements./
-
-* Usage
-=rainbow-mode= provides automatic highlighting to hex color codes, and in
-relevant modes, color names (e.g. html color names in =css-mode= or LaTeX color
-names in =latex-mode=)
-
-=kurecolor= provides commands to easily change the brightness, saturation, and
-hue of hex colors (and a useful hydra for this, if =:ui hydra= is enabled), as
-well as conversion between hex and css colors
-
-* Configuration
-=hl-line-mode= overrides the color highlighting of =rainbow-mode=, limiting the
-use of that plugin and on-site color changes using =kurecolor=. To automatically
-disable it only when =rainbow-mode= is active, you can add the following hook:
-
-#+begin_src emacs-lisp
-;; in $DOOMDIR/config.el
-(add-hook! 'rainbow-mode-hook
-  (hl-line-mode (if rainbow-mode -1 +1)))
-#+end_src
-
-* Troubleshooting
-/There are no known problems with this module./ [[doom-report:][Report one?]]
-
-* Frequently asked questions
-/This module has no FAQs yet./ [[doom-suggest-faq:][Ask one?]]
-
-* TODO Appendix
