Quick Answer

How do you extract colors from an image?

// Answer

A color extractor reads the pixels of an image, groups similar colors together, and surfaces the most frequent ones as a palette. This tool draws your image to a hidden canvas, samples its pixels, and clusters them into the dominant HEX colors — all inside your browser.
