What it does

Drop an image, get a palette. That's it. But the output is actually useful:

• 4 export formats — Tailwind config, CSS custom properties, SCSS variables, JSON
• Shareable cards — 1200×630 PNG with your image + palette, ready for Twitter/X
• Recent history — last 5 palettes stored locally, one click to reload
• Keyboard first — paste with Ctrl+V, reset with Esc, copy swatches with Enter

Why I built this

I kept screenshotting film stills to steal colors for projects. Coolors is too playful. Adobe Color is too enterprise. I wanted something that felt like it belonged next to a Letterboxd review — dark, cinematic, no noise.

So I built Palet.

Tech

• Vanilla JS + Vite — no framework, ~235kB bundle
• colorthief — median-cut palette extraction
• html2canvas — share card generation
• No backend, no accounts, no tracking

All processing happens in your browser.
