hue

A refined, performance-first color utility for the web. Built for developers who care about color spaces, accessibility, and speed.

Why hue?

Most web-based color pickers are either too bloated or lack professional features like OKLCH support and WCAG contrast ratios. hue is designed to be a "utility-first" tool: fast to load, keyboard-operable, and focused on the data you actually need.

Key Features

  • Image Analysis: Drop an image in and extract a full palette instantly.
  • Modern Color Spaces: Deep support for OKLCH, alongside HEX, RGB, and HSL.
  • WCAG Contrast: Real-time checking against white and black backgrounds to ensure your UI remains accessible.
  • Keyboard Workflow: Designed for power users. Copy values, toggle the eyedropper, or clear your history without touching the mouse.
  • Color Math: Automatically generates shades, tints, and harmonic variations (triadic, complementary, analogous).
  • Magnifier & Crosshair: Pixel-perfect selection with a built-in zoom tool for canvas-based picking.

Local Setup

  1. Clone the repo.
  2. Open index.html in any modern browser.
  3. No build step or dependencies required.
