#HexCheck

WEBSITE SCANNER · PRO

See the color system behind any public website.

Scan accessible HTML and linked stylesheets to inventory colors, inspect the rendered page, identify likely cleanup opportunities, and move the result into a practical HexCheck workflow.

Static HTML and accessible linked CSS are included. Colors created only after JavaScript runs may not appear.

WEBSITE COLOR AUDIT GUIDE

Turn the colors already used on a website into an actionable inventory.

A website can accumulate dozens of color values through CSS, components, design changes, frameworks, and one-off fixes. The Website Color Scanner is designed to reveal that system: extract the colors a public page uses, surface repetition and near-duplicates, review contrast problems, and turn the findings into cleaner design-token decisions.

Start with inventory before changing the design

Repeated colors can reveal existing semantic roles such as text, surfaces, borders, accents, success states, or calls to action. Near-duplicate colors can reveal drift: values that look almost identical but make the design system harder to maintain.

An inventory gives you evidence before consolidation. Two similar colors may be accidental duplicates, or they may serve distinct roles that need to remain separate. Review where the colors appear before merging them.

Move from findings to repairs

Contrast issues are most useful when they identify the actual foreground and background relationship that needs attention. Open important pairs in Contrast to inspect WCAG thresholds and possible corrections instead of changing a global color blindly.

Once repeated roles and safe corrections are understood, group colors into semantic tokens such as text-primary, surface-muted, border-default, action-primary, or status-error. A smaller, intentional token set is easier to audit and maintain than a list of raw HEX values.

Common questions

What does a website color scanner find?

It inventories color values used by the page and can help surface repeated values, near-duplicates, contrast relationships, and opportunities to organize colors into a clearer system.

Should every near-duplicate color be merged?

No. Similar colors can represent intentional roles. Check where each value is used before consolidating them.

What should I do after finding a contrast issue?

Open the affected foreground and background in Contrast, verify the applicable WCAG target, and test a correction in context before changing shared tokens or styles.
