Class Color

A universally compatible Color for .NET 7, .NET 6, .NET 5, and .NET Core. As well as compatiblity with Windows, NanoServer, IIS, macOS, Mobile, Xamarin, iOS, Android, Google Compute, Azure, AWS, and Linux.

Works nicely with popular Image Color such as System.Drawing.Color, SkiaSharp.SKColor, SixLabors.ImageSharp.Color, Microsoft.Maui.Graphics.Color.
