🎨 Palette Box β€” My Chrome Extension to Instantly Extract Colors from the Web

Hey Hashnode! πŸ‘‹
I’m excited to share a side project I recently built: Palette Box β€” a Chrome extension that helps developers and designers extract colors from any website instantly.


❓ The Problem

Ever seen a perfect color on a website and wanted to reuse it in your project?
The typical workflow looks like this:

  • Take a screenshot

  • Open it in Figma or Photoshop

  • Copy HEX/RGB manually

  • Paste into code

That’s 4+ steps just to get a single color. 😫


βœ… The Solution: Palette Box

Palette Box reduces this down to just one drag.

  • πŸ–± Drag a region on any webpage

  • 🎨 Instantly extract dominant colors

  • πŸ’Ύ Save palettes with names

  • πŸ“€ Export as JSON

  • πŸ”— Share presets with your team or community


πŸ’» Who It's For

Whether you're:

  • A frontend dev creating design tokens

  • A designer collecting color inspiration

  • A content creator working on visual assets

...Palette Box simplifies your color workflow.


πŸ§ͺ Example

Perfect for use in Tailwind, SCSS, styled-components, or design systems.
