Are there any built-in color swatches or color palette?

Are there any add-ons (or any other way) to get color swatches? In Coreldraw, Illustrator or any vector software we have color swatches.

Ready made color shades, no need of mixing.
We can have a fixed value for a specified color (red, green, blue, etc.).
We can directly apply a fixed color value on a mesh.

How can I have a color swatch or is there any add-on available to use it?

In texture paint mode,ok.but whats about node editor ect.if you want to give your materials colors, with the pipette?i haven't seen a palette there. Btw the Color picker needs a update,eg at least a mode switch, if you want pick up linear or gamma corrected color.and a RGB mode like this(255,128,64) etc.and maybe a option to open palettes everywhere you want,with and within the color picker.

especially with the advent of the new grease pencil this becomes necessary

really good idea, I had the same ^^ and I thought of posting an idea on the color picker in unreal engine to save color docs.unrealengine.com/en-us/Engine/UI/ColorPicker it's really useful

Don't palettes already cover this functionality? Granted, they're not pre-made, but you can certainly make your own.
