About hue

An open-source skill, not a startup.

What hue is

hue is a free, open-source skill for Claude Code and Codex. Drop in a URL or a screenshot, and hue captures it as a complete design system — colors, typography, radii, spacing, motion, voice — that your AI assistant uses every time it generates UI. It is MIT-licensed and runs entirely offline against your own model.

How it works (in one paragraph)

You point hue at something visual. It analyses the source, captures the system, and writes the result as a self-contained skill folder. From then on, your AI builds on-brand. The full how-it-works page has the longer story.

Who made this

hue is a solo project by Dominik Martin, a software designer and engineer based in Berlin. There is no team, no funding round, no roadmap meeting — just one person who got tired of AI tools generating generic UI. GitHub · Twitter · Sponsor.

Why I built it

AI coding assistants default to a generic visual style. Every new app ends up looking like every other app made that week. hue gives a brand its own design language as input, so the assistant builds within that language instead of around it. It is not a UI library, not a component framework, not a paid service — it is the missing brand-aware layer between you and the model.
