Color Temperature API

Turn physical light into RGB colours — entirely locally. The kelvin endpoint converts a colour temperature in Kelvin into the RGB colour of a black body at that temperature: warm candle and incandescent tones below 3000 K, neutral and daylight whites around 5000–6500 K, and cool bluish light above, using Tanner Helland's widely-used approximation and returning hex, an rgb() string and a plain-English description (candlelight, warm white, neutral, daylight, cool). The wavelength endpoint converts a wavelength of visible light in nanometres (380–780 nm) into the approximate RGB colour the human eye perceives, with the natural intensity fall-off at the violet and red edges of the spectrum, and names the band (violet, blue, cyan, green, yellow, orange, red). Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for lighting and smart-bulb apps, photography and white-balance tools, data-visualisation of temperature or spectra, theming and UI accents, and science and education. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 endpoints. These are perceptual approximations, not colorimetric CIE conversions; for hex/RGB/HSL conversion and palettes use a colour API.
