Paletteer: Color to Code

Extract themes. Export Code.

Free · In‑App Purchases

Stop typing hex codes. Extract colours from any website or image, build your theme, and export directly to Swift, Xcode Asset Catalogs, and CSS variables. The native colour tool built for developers. Paletteer isn't just another colour palette generator. It’s a bridge between inspiration and your codebase. Built natively for iOS and macOS, Paletteer lets you extract colours from any source and export them directly into the formats developers actually use: Swift extensions, Xcode Asset Catalogs, CSS variables, and VS Code themes. Whether you are an indie hacker starting a new SwiftUI project, or a front-end developer building a design system, Paletteer eliminates the friction of manually copying hex codes and writing boilerplate. EXTRACT FROM ANYWHERE • Website CSS Extraction: Drop in any URL. Paletteer fetches the page, parses the stylesheets, and extracts every HEX, RGB, and HSL value used on the site, ranked by prominence. • Image Extraction: Upload any photo or screenshot. Paletteer uses local k-means clustering to instantly find the dominant colours. BUILD YOUR THEME • Create custom palettes with as many colour slots as you need. • Name your colours semantically (e.g., "Primary", "Background", "Accent"). • Use native Apple colour pickers with full opacity support. • See a live, real-time preview of your theme as you build it. EXPORT TO CODE Stop exporting to PDFs or PNGs. Paletteer speaks your language: • Swift: Generates a ready-to-paste Color extension. • Xcode: Generates an .xcassets manifest for your Asset Catalog. • CSS: Generates a :root block with CSS custom properties. • JSON: Clean, structured data for any custom pipeline. • VS Code & Visual Studio: Generate editor themes instantly. • Sketch: Export .sketchpalette files for your design team. NATIVE APPLE EXPERIENCE • Built 100% in SwiftUI for a lightning-fast, native feel. • Drag-and-drop image support on macOS. • No accounts required. No cloud processing. Your images and data stay on your device. • Syncs seamlessly across your iPhone, iPad, and Mac via iCloud. Stop wrestling with browser dev tools and generic colour pickers. Get Paletteer and go from inspiration to code in seconds.
