Quote from Dave at iOS Dev Weekly: I meant to link to this new tool from Bjango last year, but I wanted to have a proper go with it first. I managed to spend some time with it and I can say that what might at first glance seem like a straightforward colour management tool is much more than that, especially for developers. Not only can you store versions of your semantically named colours for light/dark and low/high contrast. You can also export Swift code direct from the app with enough customisability that you’ll actually use it. I can’t recommend this enough. For full disclosure, I received a free licence for review purposes.
