About Geenes

Geenes is a web application for creating color scales for design systems. You shape each palette by adjusting hue and saturation curves rather than picking every shade by hand, which keeps the steps of a scale consistent with each other.

When the scale looks right, you can export it to Sketch or as code for use in a project. It suits designers and front-end developers who need a set of related color ramps for an interface.

Strengths

  • Builds whole color scales from hue and saturation curves
  • Exports palettes to Sketch or code
  • Runs in the browser with nothing to install

Limitations

  • Little public documentation about the tool
  • Export targets are limited to Sketch and code
