I am primarily an angular dev and back in September I decided to learn some React. I have often used multiple websites for color conversions like HEX to RGB or RGB to HEX as well as for darkening/lightening shades etc so I thought it would be a good opportunity to combine all the features across the different sites I use into one convenient place instead of jumping around from site to site.
So the Cron Color Tool was born! The initial iteration wasn't so great so a couple weeks ago when I got some more free time I rebuilt the app (First time using redux too!) and added a contrast tool as well (feature request from coworker! :D)
The heavy lifting relies on ChromaJS and TinyColor2. The github is sort of a mess right now but I linked it in another comment if anyone is interested.
Would be interested in any feedback or suggestions on the UI (I usually work with a design team and find it hard to design on my own). As well as any suggestions anyone has for more tools to add onto this.
- CodeWriter23 7y agoI really like the simultaneous views of all variations and complementary colors in all the modes. Since you’re asking about tools, What I also like about my current go-to, http://paletton.com http://paletton.com is the URL dynamically changes the #hash to match the settings so you can just bookmark the page when you have things dialed in instead of clicking save. Also, you can vary the angles in the various complementary color modes.
- jcron 7y agoOooh that's a good idea for the URL's! Also Paletton is really cool!
