TokenTint project palette for organizing color tokens

A calmer way to build color systems

The problem

Color tokens become tedious when values are copied from a browser, renamed in a spreadsheet, and later re-entered into code. The handoff loses the source context and makes small inconsistencies easy to introduce.

How TokenTint solves it

TokenTint focuses on the color-token part of the workflow: collect interface colors, group them in a project palette, and export CSS Variables or W3C Design Tokens. Naming, semantic decisions, and documentation stay in the tools your team already uses.

A better color workflow

From interface color to reusable color token.

  1. 01 / COLLECTCollect.Pick colors from a live interface or use page extraction to create a starting color set.
  2. 02 / GROUPGroup.Review related colors and keep them together in a project palette before deciding how they should be used.
  3. 03 / EXPORTExport.Download CSS Variables or W3C Design Tokens as a practical starting point for development.

Pro workflow

Color token workflow: Open → Extract → Group → Export

Start from a real interface, build a focused color token set, and hand the result to your codebase.

REAL OUTPUT

See the color token shape before you export.

TokenTint gives you a project color palette first, then turns it into a code-ready starting point. You can refine names and semantics in your own repository.

TokenTint export
{
  "color": {
    "brand": {
      "$value": "#635BFF",
      "$type": "color"
    }
  }
}

Free vs Pro

Why TokenTint instead of a basic color picker? TokenTint is a color-token generator, not a full design-system platform: it helps you move from sampled interface colors to usable exports, while your team keeps ownership of naming and design decisions.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert website colors into design tokens?

Collect colors from the active website, group the useful values in a TokenTint project palette, and export them as CSS Variables or W3C Design Tokens.

Does TokenTint export the W3C Design Tokens format?

Yes. W3C Design Tokens export is available with Pro. Free users can export project colors as CSS Variables.

What kind of design tokens does TokenTint generate?

TokenTint focuses on color tokens collected from real interfaces. It does not generate typography, spacing, motion, or an entire design system.

Is this a full design-system management platform?

No. TokenTint focuses on collecting, grouping, and exporting colors. Naming conventions, semantic roles, and documentation remain in your existing workflow.

Can I generate tokens from a live website?

Yes. Pick colors from the active webpage, or use Pro page extraction to create a broader starting palette before exporting.
