## What it is
A web-based terminal color scheme designer that lets users visually craft 16-color terminal palettes. It exports the resulting scheme as configuration files for many terminal emulators such as iTerm2, GNOME Terminal, Konsole, Xresources-based terminals, and PuTTY.

## Use cases
- design a custom terminal color scheme
- create a terminal theme for iTerm2
- generate .Xresources colors for urxvt
- export a color palette for GNOME Terminal
- make a Konsole colorscheme file
- theme PuTTY colors

## When to choose
- you want a visual editor for terminal palettes instead of hand-editing config files
- you need to export one scheme to many terminal emulator formats

## When to avoid
- you need automatic palette generation from an image or wallpaper
- you want a pre-made theme collection rather than a designer
