Setting absolute values for LCH

[punund]

One can manipulate LCH components relative to the current color:

color.rotate(5)
color.lighten(0.1)
color.saturate(0.2)

Of those one can directly set the H:

color.hue(200)

So why not L and C?

color.lightness(80)
color.saturation(35)

Hey! Implemented in @colordx/core as getter/setter pairs matching the existing hue() pattern. They operate in OKLCH (perceptually uniform) rather than HSL:

import { colordx } from '@colordx/core';

// Getters
colordx('#3b82f6').lightness()  // 0.623
colordx('#3b82f6').chroma()     // 0.188
colordx('#3b82f6').hue()        // 259.8

// Setters — return a new Colordx instance
colordx('#3b82f6').lightness(0.3).toHex()  // darker blue, same hue & chroma
colordx('#3b82f6').chroma(0).toHex()       // gray at same lightness
colordx('#3b82f6').hue(120).toHex()        // green at same lightness & chroma

Using OKLCH means equal steps in L and C correspond to equal perceived changes — unlike HSL where the same numeric delta looks very different across hues
