Is there a how-to for this extension? I don't get any interaction when this is running.
by Max Weir, 2017-03-12

Confused a bit by the application. Looks nice for what it does, but when you hover over a color it shows you the same content that is just below the color and if you "copy" the content it just gives you the color value (ex blue, 20). Would have expected the ability to click on a color and get the RGB or hex value copied to clip board. Also, it unfortunately makes the page really slow to scroll. Definitely something that looks nice and could be pretty cool, but just needs some more work. Would be really nice if you could use it without ibm design language page. Like it was just an IBM color palette picker in the browser
