Technical Guide
Image is downsampled to 150px max for performance. Each pixel is quantized to the nearest multiple of 8 (reducing 16M colors to ~32K bins). Bins are counted and sorted by frequency. The most frequent bin is the dominant color. Top 5 bins are displayed with their percentage of total pixels. Text color on the dominant swatch auto-adapts based on luminance for readability.
