Huedrop — Color Picker, Eyedropper & Palettes

About

Huedrop is a privacy-first color toolkit for designers and developers — an eyedropper, palette manager, WCAG contrast checker and color-blindness previewer that runs entirely on your device.

Pick any pixel — without "access all your data".
Huedrop uses your browser's built-in eyedropper, so it can grab a color from ANY pixel on screen — a webpage, the Chrome Web Store, a local file, even another app's window — with NO host permissions. No "read your data on all websites", no account, no tracking.

Every format, one click.
See and copy each color as HEX, RGB, HSL, HSV and CMYK, with a friendly nearest-name label. Set your default copy format and uppercase/lowercase in settings.

A real Color Studio.
- Palettes: build and name unlimited palettes, drag colors in, reorder, delete — all stored locally.
- Variations: instant complementary, analogous, triadic, tetradic, square, split-complementary and monochromatic harmonies, plus tints, shades and tones.
- Contrast: a full WCAG 2.x checker — foreground/background, a live preview, the exact ratio and AA / AAA pass-fail for normal text, large text and UI components.
- Color blindness: preview any color or palette through 8 vision deficiencies (protanopia, deuteranopia, tritanopia and the anomalous + achromatic variants).
- Gradient builder: multi-stop linear, radial and conic gradients with a copy-ready CSS declaration.
- Page colors: one click reads every color used on the current tab (using activeTab only, on demand) so you can lift a site's palette.

Export to code.
Send any palette to HEX list, CSS variables, SCSS, a Tailwind config, JSON, or Android XML — copy or download.

Private by design.
Everything is computed locally and never leaves your device. Huedrop makes zero network requests, bundles all of its code (no remote code), and asks only for: storage (your palettes + settings) and activeTab + scripting (used only when you click "Grab page colors", on the tab you're viewing). That's it.

Keyboard shortcut: Alt+Shift+H opens the Color Studio.
