A self-contained colormap library for Python.
If you do not mind using Matplotlib, please use it (https://matplotlib.org/tutorials/colors/colormaps.html) and just forget this library.
If you do not want to use Matplotlib for some reasons, then this library is probably useful.

These colormaps are designed to be perceptually uniform (even in black-and-white printing) and friendly to colorblindness.
The original colormaps are released under CC0 by Nathaniel J. Smith, Stefan van der Walt, and (in the case of viridis) Eric Firing: https://github.com/BIDS/colormap/blob/master/colormaps.py.
