VERY disappointed in GitHub refusing to support the LaTeX `\colorbox` (outright banned) or `\textcolor` macros (seemingly only very limited support) or any CSS solution to allow one to create colored text in Markdown files... I was hoping to create color swatches as shown in the attached preview (in VSCode), but just none of this works on GitHub...
(And yes, I understand there're some potential accessibility issues, but there're more social solutions to address these than an outright technical ban of colored text! It's 2024!)
Now, all user can get is a boring list of color names with their hex values sans pre-visualization... 😤😭
