This repository contains discrete GIMP color palettes for a selection of Viridis family color maps. Besides GIMP, these palettes can be used for any program that supports the GIMP color palette format, such as Inkscape or Krita.
To import a palatte, download the file named after the color map you want and import it to the tool of your choice.
NOTE: You may need to restart the program because the palettes are loaded once at startup.
