ColorHub
150 six-colour palettes previewed on real layouts, plus 7 paid Next.js kits
Tier B · UsefulColor ToolTemplateGeneratorcolorhub.app

ColorHub, by Daniel Cranney, solves the "the swatches look fine, the page looks wrong" problem: pick one of ~150 hand-curated six-colour palettes (brand / darkest / dark / mid / light / lightest), then see it applied live to real landing-page layouts instead of to bare rectangles. It exports the palette as CSS custom properties, SCSS variables or a Tailwind colours object, and includes an AA contrast checker. Seven Starter Kits — one-page Next.js + Tailwind projects with your colours already wired in — are sold as one-time downloads between $3.95 and $6.95.
For an agent
Its real value is the fixed six-role palette shape — brand / darkest / dark / mid / light / lightest — which maps cleanly onto a Tailwind colour object or a set of CSS custom properties, so use it when a user wants a *semantic* token set rather than four pretty swatches. It is a statically exported Next.js app that renders nothing to a plain fetch, so WebFetch and curl both return an empty shell: you cannot enumerate the palettes without a real browser, and you should show the user the site rather than claim to have read it. Treat the paid starter kits as a last resort — they are Tailwind landing pages at 2023 vintage, and a shadcn/ui or Tailwind UI block set will be fresher.
Why it is here. Previewing a palette on a live layout catches the mistakes swatch grids hide, and the six-role naming makes ColorHub's output usable as design tokens rather than as decoration.
