StyleURL is the easiest way for developers & designers to collaborate on CSS changes. Make your CSS changes in Chrome and StyleURL exports them directly. It's stored in a Gist on GitHub, so that you can share and make changes easily. StyleURL also generates links which load your CSS changes into existing webpages automatically.
We made a special StyleURL for Product Hunt: https://www.styleurl.app/www.pro...

Hey everyone!
We're really excited to share StyleURL with you. We think it'll make the iteration cycle for product development move much faster.
Designers and developers often times make changes in dev tools and don't remember what changes they save. On top of that, when designers make changes, in order to show others what it looks like live, they need to implement then deploy it.
This allows people to send changes instantly! We've been using it ourselves and it's much faster than slacking CSS code around (which is what we used to do for our other products) :)
@lucy_guo Cool - this ended up a side effect of the tool Context (https://ctxt.io) I was building for sharing website pastes when I left Quora. Ended up being super useful for a segment of the users to do web dev with it: make CSS changes in dev tools and then share that version (and its new CSS) via the url.
Have a bunch of tips for doing workarounds for CORS and font files if you like!
Very excited to ship StyleURL
We built StyleURL because @lucy_guo would send me quick CSS changes for stuff we’re working on over Slack and it was hard to know:
- Which page does it apply to?
- Which file does it go in?
- What do the changes look like before and after?
I also frequently play around with styles in Chrome to figure out a fix for small CSS issues, and wanted a quick way to export whatever I did out of Chrome Devtools and into the code itself. Before StyleURL, I had to remember which elements I changed, select each, then remember which styles I changed, and copy paste each style — and now I can just click Download.
Fixing problems you experience yourself is fun.

If you’re curious about how it works, StyleURL’s extension is open source — https://github.com/Jarred-Sumner...
This seems like a cool concept.
Few queries:
How does this works? It extracts the changes and stores in github gist of the user? And then when receiver opens the url the plugin applies the changes fetching from github gist?
If so Any way to change the storage source? As many projects are client works or confidential so we might not have rights to share it on github or any such open site. Any way to share by storing the changes on our own server or your paid service?

Yes, exactly that

Not currently, but that's a great idea. How much do you think you'd pay for that?
@jarredsumner May be some 9$ a month?
Or may be you can give some way that you charge one time for the plugin and my personal google drive or drop box storage is used.
@jarredsumner that's a difficult question. I'd pay a few $/month at the most. Storage is cheap plus we'd be paying for our own storage. You could also do a one time payment.
