Basic fade in or out of a palette

I just realized that up to now I never did any fade in or out on the nes
I'm sure there must be many topics on the subject on nesdev and first tried the phpbb search (bad idea ) and got not much related to my question. Google was more useful and I ended up on this topic first:

but... let just say that I'm not very knowledgable in color theory and reading this topic confuse me more than anything ^^;;; I will search again since I'm sure there must be more topic on the subject but some of the basic questions I have are:
- I guess with the limited colors it must be hard to make some smooth transition compared to PC VGA 320x200x256
- I would like to find some simple example until I understand more on the subject
My use case for now is mostly
- a screen that either fade in or out
- white text that fade in/out to allow to update with the next text
In the mean time I will continue to search nesdev since there must be other topics.

I just found this answer from Kasumi on the subject:

Seems to give a simple example for fade out but mentioning that fade in is more complicated.
