Is this color picker tool fully client-side?

Yes. The entire color picker and palette generator runs locally inside your browser. No color data or user input is uploaded to any server.

Can this tool generate lighter and darker color shades?

Yes. The tool automatically generates multiple lighter and darker variations of the selected base color to help you create complete color palettes.

Can I copy the HEX codes from the palette?

Yes. Every generated color swatch displays its HEX code, and you can click to copy it instantly for use in design or development projects.

Does the tool include a color contrast checker?

Yes. You can check contrast ratios to ensure the colors meet WCAG AA or AAA accessibility standards for UI and text readability.

Can I export the color palette?

Yes. Palettes can be exported as JSON or PNG, and additional export formats like ASE or SVG can be added if needed.

Is this tool client-side only?

Yes - the picker and palette generation run entirely in the browser. No server calls are required, improving privacy and performance.

What input formats are supported?

The tool supports hex codes (e.g. #ffffff) and the native HTML color input. You can extend it to accept RGB / HSL strings if needed.

Can I copy hex values?

Yes - each swatch shows the hex code and supports click-to-copy. You can also add a 'Copy palette' button to copy a JSON array of hex values.

Does it ensure color accessibility?

The generator can show contrast ratios and flag combinations that fail WCAG AA / AAA. Use darker/lighter alternates for better readability.

Can I export palettes to design tools?

Yes - implement export options (JSON, ASE, or PNG). JSON is the simplest: an array of hex strings designers and scripts can read.
