Blog post from Webflow
Color selection is a critical aspect of design, influencing both user experience and accessibility for individuals with color blindness. Designers have access to a variety of color picker tools to help them quickly identify and apply colors in their projects. Popular tools include the ColorPick Eyedropper, which allows users to find Hex color codes of UI elements, and ColorSnapper 2, a Mac app that stores selected colors for later use. Webflow offers a built-in color picker for managing palettes within its design canvas. Palette generators such as Coolors and LOLColors provide inspiration and help designers create cohesive color schemes. Tools like the Brandmark's Color Wheel and Adobe Capture CC use AI and photography to generate palettes, while Colormind uses deep learning to suggest colors. Colorable focuses on accessibility, allowing designers to test color combinations against WCAG guidelines to ensure readability for users with visual impairments. These tools collectively enhance the design process by offering functional and creative support for color management.
