This article goes over the customizations and stylizations you can apply to graphs and plots in the Desmos Graphing Calculator.

Custom Colors
You can create custom colors by using the 'rgb' function in this format: 'c = rgb(x,y,z)', where c is the name of your color and x, y, and x are the red, green, and blue components of your color. After righting this expression, the color will appear in the stylization settings of every plot you make, just as any other color.
