Extracting exact HEX (#FF5733) or RGB (rgb(255, 87, 51)) color values from mockup images or screenshots is essential for frontend UI styling.
Native Browser EyeDropper API Example
// Use modern browser EyeDropper API to pick color from screen
async function pickColor() {
if ('EyeDropper' in window) {
const eyeDropper = new EyeDropper();
try {
const result = await eyeDropper.open();
console.log('Selected HEX Color:', result.sRGBHex);
} catch (err) {
console.error('Color selection canceled', err);
}
}
}
