Color Archiver: From Inspiration to Asset — Your Color Workflow Hub

Color Archiver: Save, Compare, and Reuse Color Schemes Effortlessly

What it does

• Stores color palettes and individual swatches with names, tags, and metadata (hex, RGB, HSL, source).
• Lets you compare palettes side-by-side, highlight differences (contrast, hue shifts), and view accessibility scores.
• Provides quick reuse via copy-to-clipboard, export (ASE, GPL, PNG, CSS variables), and smart suggestions for matching or contrasting colors.

Key features

• Organize: folders, tags, ratings, and search by color, name, or tag.
• Compare: visual diff, similarity score, and colorblind-mode previews.
• Reuse: one-click export to design tools, generate CSS variables, and create downloadable assets.
• Accessibility checks: WCAG contrast ratios and suggested adjustments.
• Versioning: history of palette edits and ability to restore previous versions.

Typical users

• UI/UX and graphic designers managing brand colors.
• Developers needing CSS variables and consistent palettes.
• Teams collaborating on visual assets and style systems.

Benefits

• Speeds up design iteration by centralizing palettes.
• Ensures consistency across products and platforms.
• Reduces accessibility issues with built-in checks.

Example workflow

1. Import a palette from a design file or create one manually.
2. Tag and save with project metadata.
3. Compare with the brand palette to spot conflicts.
4. Export CSS variables and ASE file for engineers and designers.
5. Track changes and revert if needed.

Integrations & exports

• Common exports: ASE, GPL, SVG/PNG swatches, CSS/SCSS variables, JSON.
• Integrations: Figma/Sketch plugins, Git-friendly exports for codebases, and clipboard shortcuts.

If you want, I can draft a short product description, landing-page blurb, or three onboarding steps for new users.
