It’s not my favorite that you can only get 6-digit HEX colors in and out of it, like #F06D06 and the like. No transparency, no other formats.

You need the MasterColorPicker. All popular color-space outputs, color-blind assistant from the START, not as an afterthought, alpha channel in the EyeDropper tool!, build and save your own named-color palettes, no less than 15 different palettes to choose from, etc. etc. etc.

Open source and totally free (no ads or cookies, no tracking, no b.s.)

Runs sandboxed in your browser of choice on the platform of your choice (Firefox on Ubuntu has problems with the X-Windows system, but that is the OS, not the JavaScript!). Or just use the online version linked from the repo below.
