About:
Color Oracle is a color blindness simulator that helps designers and developers check their visual work for accessibility issues. It applies real-time, system-wide color transformations to simulate how visuals appear to users with common forms of color vision deficiency. This tool is essential for ensuring that user interfaces, data visualizations, and digital content remain legible and effective for all users.

Key Features:

Real-time, system-wide color blindness simulation
Supports Protanopia, Deuteranopia, and Tritanopia filters
Simple on/off toggle for instant feedback
Lightweight and easy to use

Use Cases:

Validating UI/UX designs for color accessibility compliance
Ensuring data visualizations and charts are distinguishable without color
Testing application interfaces for color-blind user experience

Alternatives:

Sim Daltonism – Offers a real-time filter that can be applied to a specific area of the screen, similar to Color Oracle but with a different interface.
Stark (Plugin) – An integrated plugin for Figma, Sketch, and Adobe XD that provides color blindness simulation and contrast checking directly within design workflows.
