This MDN page that spell out colors used in DevTools has not been substantially updated since 2015 and does not reflect the current color palette and variables.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/DevToolsColors
I suggest removing it and removing all references to it in mozilla-central:
https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/search?path=&q=https%3A%2F%2Fdeveloper.mozilla.org%2Fen-US%2Fdocs%2FTools%2FDevToolsColors
Alternatively we could update it, but I'm not sure which audience it serves and keeping it up-to-date seems challenging. We already have the Photon color palette on one side (and a color palette update for the Firefox brand recently), and https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/devtools/client/themes/variables.css on the other hand to keep more or less in sync.

I've made a patch removing remaining references to this page, and linking to https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/devtools/client/themes/variables.css as the source of truth in one case (it's the link in https://docs.firefox-dev.tools/contributing/css.html#light-and-dark-theme-support).
I'm not sure how we can remove the https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/DevToolsColors page though. Do we need to talk to someone in particular?

Hello Irene, I think we should remove this DevToolsColors MDN page because it's very outdated and I don't think we plan to update it or use it as a reference in the future.
Do you know what the process for that would be? I have the base permissions on MDN so can make edits but not delete or archive a page.
