Piknik Live -- Absolutely The Best Thing on Earth

Piknik Live is a tool for Web designers (and inept Web developers like myself) to visualize colors even easier than changing arbitrary CSS values via Firebug, or updating the CSS file and reloading the whole page (all while hoping the CSS file wasn’t cached or the updated file upload didn’t fail).

It’s able to select any HTML element (via jQuery-style selectors), and set the CSS value of any property which accepts a color value.

This mini-project was inspired by another mini-project by Arne Martin, the Piknik Color Picker

This is more of a placeholder post rather than a comprehensive one. However, I plan to update this blog with more insights as to why and how I create side projects such as these.

You’re looking at my first blog post in my Tumblr blog, which probably would be very empty if it wouldn’t be for this link. So might as well click-through to my Web site, right? :)
