Hey devs and designers! ๐
I recently launched HexTo โ an all-in-one color toolkit for modern workflows โ and weโve just rolled out a big update packed with features inspired by your feedback.
โธป
๐จ What is HexTo?
HexTo is a browser-based color tool built for developers, designers, and accessibility-conscious creators. It started as a simple color code converterโฆ and grew into a full-on color workflow hub.

โจ Whatโs New in This Update?
Hereโs what weโve just added:
โ
Color Harmonies Generator
Generate monochromatic, analogous, complementary, triadic, split, and tetradic schemes from any base color. Great for brand systems or UI themes.
โ
Contrast Checker (Now Visual)
Check contrast ratios with WCAG pass/fail indicators, and preview how your text and background colors actually look in context.
โ
Color Vision Simulator
See how your color choices appear to users with color blindness (8+ types supported).
โ
Palette Builder + Export
Create, view, and export palettes as JSON or image swatches. Share them or drop them into design/dev pipelines.
โ
Design Token Support
Define color names, organize them, and export as design tokens โ perfect for scalable design systems.
โ
Dark Mode + Mobile Friendly
A responsive, fast interface that works just as well on mobile as it does on desktop.

๐ ๏ธ Why I Built This
I was tired of switching between 4+ tools just to manage basic color workflows โ convert here, check contrast there, export somewhere else. HexTo is my attempt at solving that with one streamlined experience for both designers and devs.
