Package Exports
- color-palette
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (color-palette) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

- Pictaculous - Upload an image and get it's palatte. They provide a free api as well. At some point I might integrate this API into the color-palette cli.
- url2png - An API for taking screenshots of websites. Currently, I'm using phantomjs for taking screenshots, but combining the url2png and pictaculous APIs would be an alternative to using color-palette.
