There are tools included in both Firefox and chrome.

I prefer ColorOracle because it overlays the entire screen, not just a single window.

I tested it just now in Devuan 4 using Java 11 and it runs fine, adding the applet into the icon widget/system tray area of my tint2 panel in openbox. I’m guessing it should work just fine also with XFCE or similar desktop environment.

You can run it after downloading and unzipping with:

java -jar ColorOracle.jar
