CSS & Design Tools
Visual tools for the parts of front-end work that are faster to tune by eye than by editing numbers: gradients, shadows, flexbox and grid layouts, fluid typography, color palettes, and scrollbar styling — each with a live preview and copy-ready CSS.
There are also utilities for the assets around a design — optimizing SVGs, converting SVG to JSX, extracting a palette from an image, and generating placeholder images — all running locally in your browser.
