Accessible Color Picker

Accessible Color Picker

The Accessible Color Picker Chrome extension is a vital tool for designers and developers aiming to create inclusive digital content. It allows users to select foreground and background colors to check their color contrast ratio, ensuring compliance with accessibility standards. This helps users with low vision, color deficiencies, and those using monochrome screens to better perceive content.

Key features include a history of the last 10 foreground and background colors selected, live preview of sample text with chosen colors, a toggle feature to swap foreground and background for testing variations, and editable hex code inputs with a convenient copy-to-clipboard button. This extension empowers users to evaluate and enhance their color palettes directly within the browser, promoting more accessible and user-friendly web design.

This works pretty well, though it does have performance issues. It has some delay after clicking, about 500-1000ms and causes the layout to readjust. It appears to be doing some kind of zooming feature but this is arguably unnecessary—the user can zoom in with the default browser actions if necessary, or perhaps the zooming can be an optional feature. Due to this zooming, it feels quite janky as it's unusable until the zooming has completed, but it works well enough that I'll keep using it. I think if the performance issues are resolved, this is easily 5 stars.
