# Color opacity modifier

Every color related style property can use the
[`color-mix`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/color_value/color-mix)
shortcut to apply opacity to a color.

## Syntax

The general syntax is `{color}/{opacity}`. For example: `bg="red.300/40"`.

## Usage

```tsx
<Text bg="red.300/40" color="white">
  Hello World
</Text>
```

This will generate something like this:

```css {2,3}
.css-sxdf {
  --mix-background: color-mix(in srgb, var(--colors-red-300) 40%, transparent);
  background: var(--mix-background, var(--colors-red-300));
  color: var(--colors-white);
}
```

### CSS Variables

This feature can be used in css variables as well. This is useful for creating
one-off color token in a component.

The token reference syntax `{}` is required for this to work.

```tsx
<Box css={{ "--bg": "{colors.red.400/40}" }}>
  <Text>Hello World</Text>
  <Box bg="var(--bg)" />
</Box>
```
