Question Can I Ask for Feedback on a Color Matching Tool I’m Working On?

[o0Wiggyo]

Hi everyone,

I’ve been working on a small web-based tool to help with color matching in sign making, especially when dealing with Pantone references, material changes, and reprints where consistency matters. It's packed with helpful features.

I’ve hit enough bumps in my own workflow over the years that I decided to build something to solve the common issues — mainly tracking what worked before, matching colors across different printers or substrates, and creating reusable reference charts.

I’d love to share a bit more about it and invite a few of you to try it out while it’s in beta. But before I do, I just want to check with the mods/admin to make sure that's okay?

I’m not selling anything — I just want honest feedback from people who live and breathe this stuff and help me develop it further.

Is it alright to post more about it here?

Thanks for your time,

yours is a software solution?
what hardware component does it use?
xrite I1?

Are you just using the browser for the GUI or actually using the browser for both GUI and logic? Hopefully, the former and using a local server to handle communication with local hardware, otherwise be limited to whatever hardware the browser supports in it's CORs related sandbox and that may not be as accurate as one would want.

I'll use browsers/webviews for prototyping tools or short lived tools as that is quicker to throw a GUI on, especially compared to an immediate mode gui, but the sandbox nature of the browser is what will get one when it comes to local apps and it will need that local server.
