Pixel Picker

Often times I need a simple online color picker from an image. There are plenty of free versions online that do such a thing but I thought it would be fun to make a simple tool using basic python and ObservableJS. This tool will take an image, run k-means clustering, and return the hex code and frequency plot of the dominant colors. Because this is serverless – thanks to quarto-live – all computations are client-side! This means that no computation occurs on this static website. That’s right, all the computation is done in your browser’s tab.

This project is a work-in-progress and I plan to add more features later.

Tip

Because this tool runs in your browser, if you experience a lag, try loading a smaller image and/or setting the number of k clusters lower.

Choose a number of k clusters
