Chrome Extension: Identify colors and fonts on any website

Identify colors and fonts on any website in a single click. Rather than installing one extension for colors, another for fonts, and then hovering your mouse over every element on the page, you get to see all the colors/fonts used on any website in an instant.

I built DesignDupe as an experiment to test the limits of ClaudeAI. I started with a simple prompt: “create a chrome extension that will extract all the colors and fonts from a website.” I downloaded the code, tested it out locally, and it worked immediately! Then, I began to iterate on the product by asking Claude to add hover effects, copy hex codes to clipboard onClick, fix any error messages that came up, etc. After each response, I would simply copy over the generated code into my repo and test it out. Within a couple dozen prompts, I was left with something nice and published it to the Chrome Web Store. Try it out and please leave a review!

I use eye dropper but this is just instant, a click to copy the colour, and no need to select it first 👌 Extension installed, thank you! 🙏

That sounds like an impressive experiment! It's fascinating to see how you used ClaudeAI to build and refine your Chrome extension step by step. DesignDupe seems like a useful tool for designers and developers who want to quickly extract design elements from websites.

Hey Musab, I'm curious about how accurate the color and font detection is, especially for more complex layouts. Do you have plans to expand this to other browsers like Firefox or Safari? Congrats on the launch!
