I open-sourced my HEX code to Tailwind color converter

Hacker News

I posted 3 months ago about a little web app I built that converts a HEX code to a Tailwind color (hextotailwind.com). I wanted it to be one of those online tools that get decent traffic. I managed to get it ranked 2nd on Google and 3rd on Bing for the "hex to tailwind" phrase. However, it's not generating enough traffic to warrant me investing more time on it. See the analytics here: https://um.app.taralys.com/share/9lrPut4XEF1miVx3/hextotailw... So I decided to open-source the project. I know it's not that big of a deal, but I figured I should give it a go. Any questions, let me know!
