- apply weights to r(ed),g(green),b(lue),l(ightness) or s(aturation)
- apply a minimum or maximum lightness threshold on a color
- coerce a color to a certain lightness percent
- apply a minimum or maximum saturation threshold on a color
- coerce a color to a certain saturation percent
- apply an alpha value
- output to javascript object {r,g,b,a}

You can install the entire JavaScript
ion-cloud engine simply by

npm i @ion-cloud/core
`
and then importing only what you need into your project with
`
import {Easel,Ion} from '@ion-cloud/core';
`
Alternatively you can install only the components you need such as
