🎨Color patterns

Vanilla colors and text formatting

All vanilla color and text formatting codes are supported with the '&' character.

Hexadecimal colors

Hexadecimal colors have two different formats:

Default: #RRGGBB, from #000000 up to #FFFFFF, the format everyone is used to.

Simple: A simple version of the default hexadecimal pattern, which uses three characters instead of three (#RGB), so #F00 translates to #FF0000, using half the characters at the cost of color precision, this is useful when you are limited to a few characters, for example, while renaming an item on an anvil.

Gradient colors

Gradients are also supported with two different formats:

Default: <#RRGGBBText Here#RRGGBB>, for example, <#FF0000Hello world!#000000> which is a gradient on the text "Hello world!" from #FF0000 to #000000.

Simple: Same as the simple hexadecimal pattern, <#RGBText Here#RGB>, the default example above can be replicated as <#F00Hello world!#000>

Image has been modified, books aren't able to support that much colors on a single page, however, you can test it on chat.

Color limitations

Keep in mind that some terminals (Or server panels) may not be able to represent all colors, specially those using any hexadecimal format. This also applies to players or servers on a version lower than 1.16, where the hexadecimal color support was introduced to Minecraft.
