What does the Palette Generator do?
Free color palette generator — build a matching color palette from a base color or an uploaded image, with HEX codes ready to copy. It's part of TeckForge's color tools collection, sitting alongside related tools you can reach from the sidebar.
How to use the Palette Generator
- Open the Palette Generator.
- Pick or enter a starting color (by hex code, clicking a swatch, or uploading an image, depending on the tool).
- Preview the generated palette, contrast result, or converted value.
- Copy the color codes you need — HEX, RGB, or HSL.
Tips for getting a good result
- Check contrast against both light and dark backgrounds if your design supports a dark mode.
- Save the exact HEX codes you land on somewhere permanent (a style guide or design file), since the tool itself won't remember them.
- When picking from an image, zoom in first for a more precise color sample.
