How it works
Click the dropzone above or drag a GPL from your desktop. Files of any size, there's no upload, so there's no upload limit.
The conversion runs entirely in this tab using JavaScript and WebAssembly. Your file never touches our servers, we don't have any.
Get your Hex codes the moment the conversion finishes. Convert another, or close the tab.
Your file is never uploaded. The entire conversion runs in your browser using WebAssembly. We can't see what you convert because we have no server to see it.
Server converters cap free users at 1-2 GB and gate larger files behind a paid plan. Since nothing uploads, our limit is whatever your browser can handle.
No account required. No watermark on the output. No queue. Drop a file, get a converted file.
Formats involved
GPL is GIMP's plain-text palette format. Each line: R G B Name (R/G/B as 0-255 integers). Trivially diff-able, scriptable, and human-readable, which is why open-source design tools (Inkscape, Krita) and many web color tools support GPL natively even when they don't read ASE/ACO.
How to open
GIMP, Inkscape, Krita, Aseprite, MyPaint. Plain text in any editor, generate or edit them programmatically.
A plain text list of hex color codes (e.g. #FF6B35, one per line). The most portable color-list format, any modern design tool accepts hex. Often the format used by color-palette generators (Coolors, Adobe Color, Khroma) for export.
How to open
Any text editor. Pastes directly into design tools.

FAQ
Yes. No signup, no watermark, no daily file count limit. Every conversion runs in your browser, your file never touches our servers because there are no servers.
Nowhere. The conversion runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript and WebAssembly. Your file is never uploaded to our servers. We don't have any servers handling files, there's nothing for us to log, store, or accidentally leak.
Whatever your browser can hold in memory. Practically, this means a few hundred MB on most computers, significantly larger than the 1-2 GB caps that server-upload converters charge for. Very large files (multi-GB) may require closing other browser tabs first.
Color palette sharing in open-source design workflows. Color palette interchange between web/design tools. The most common reason to convert is compatibility, Hex codes works in places where GPL doesn't, or vice versa.
GIMP, Inkscape, Krita, Aseprite, MyPaint. Plain text in any editor, generate or edit them programmatically.
Once the page is loaded, the conversion itself runs entirely offline. The first time you use a tool, your browser downloads the conversion library (a one-time cache). If you reload while offline, the page won't load, but you can install the site as a Progressive Web App for full offline use.
Single file at a time for now. Batch conversion is on the roadmap, for now, drop one file, download the result, then convert the next.
