What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded
A Python module that analyzes images to find their most prominent colors and generates CSS gradient placeholders. It can output CSS rules or RGB values with directions, supporting single-color or 4-color gradients.
Use cases
- generate css gradient placeholders for images
- create low-bandwidth image placeholders from dominant colors
- reduce jarring image loading on webpages
- extract dominant colors from an image as css
- generate solid color fallbacks for images
When to avoid
- you need PNG or other format support (only JPG is accepted)
- you need cross-browser-optimized or maintained code (project is from 2015 and unmaintained)
- you need a JavaScript runtime solution rather than a Python pre-processing step
