🎨Color Picker Tool for Visual Studio

Color Picker for Visual Studio

Working with colors in Visual Studio often means switching between tools, browsers, or external color pickers.
To reduce that friction, I built an inline Color Picker extension for Visual Studio.

What it does

  • Highlights colors inline in the editor
  • Provides a dockable Color Picker window
  • Supports multiple color formats (HEX, RGB, HSL, CMYK, LAB, OKLAB, etc.)
  • Includes Eyedropper, Color Canvas, Web Colors, and Favorites
  • Allows quick editing, conversion, and insertion of colors
  • Optimized to handle large files gracefully

Adoption & Community Support

This extension has seen meaningful use across Visual Studio versions:

Thanks to everyone who has downloaded the tool and shared feedback!
