An iOS library for advanced color manipulation, including dominant color extraction, palette generation, and perceptual color comparison.
ColorKit is an iOS library that provides advanced color manipulation capabilities for Swift developers. It solves complex color-related problems like extracting dominant colors from images, generating harmonious palettes, and comparing colors based on human perception rather than simple RGB values.
iOS developers building apps that require sophisticated color handling, such as photo editors, design tools, or applications with dynamic theming and accessibility needs.
Developers choose ColorKit for its scientifically accurate color algorithms, comprehensive feature set, and easy-to-use Swift API that simplifies implementing complex color logic while ensuring perceptual correctness.
Advanced color manipulation for iOS.
Open-Awesome is built by the community, for the community. Submit a project, suggest an awesome list, or help improve the catalog on GitHub.
Implements DeltaE algorithms like CIE94 and CIEDE2000 for human-perception-based color comparison, as demonstrated in the README's example showing the limitations of RGB models.
Offers everything from dominant color extraction and palette generation to contrast ratio analysis and color space conversions, making it a one-stop solution for iOS color manipulation.
Includes contrast ratio calculations that help developers meet WCAG 2 guidelines for text readability, with clear examples in the README.
Supports multiple methods for tasks like dominant color extraction (iterative and k-means), allowing developers to balance accuracy and performance based on their use case.
Exclusively built for iOS using UIColor, so it's not suitable for cross-platform development or projects targeting macOS or other ecosystems without significant workarounds.
Advanced algorithms like k-means clustering for dominant colors or perceptual DeltaE calculations can be computationally expensive, potentially slowing down apps with heavy image processing.
While it works with SwiftUI via UIColor, it's not optimized for SwiftUI's Color type, requiring additional conversions and potentially feeling less native in modern SwiftUI apps.
