Frequently Asked Questions
Does the upload touch any server?
No. The image stays entirely on your device and is processed inside your browser's canvas using a local color quantization algorithm.
Why do the extracted colors sometimes look slightly off?
Palette extraction reduces millions of pixels to a handful of representative colors. The algorithm prioritizes the most visually dominant colors, but very subtle shades may be merged.
Can I export the palette?
Currently you can copy individual HEX or RGB codes. Full palette export (e.g., as CSS variables or an ASE file) is on the roadmap.
