A developer reference app for Pebble. Browse all system fonts, the full 64-color palette, and hardware platform details — all on your wrist.

PROJECT_CONTEXT.mdbefore making any code changes. It contains the full implementation reference, architecture, build rules, and known traps.
Fonts — Scrollable list of all system fonts by name. Select any font for a full-screen specimen page with five sample strings covering time, digits, alpha, prose, and symbols. UP/DOWN scrolls the specimen; at the boundary it advances to the next or previous font automatically.
Colors — The full 64-color Pebble palette in spectrum order. Each row shows a color swatch and name. Select any color for a full-screen preview filled with that color, overlaid with the GColor constant name, hex code, and 2-bit RGB channel values. Text color adapts automatically for contrast. UP/DOWN navigates colors without returning to the list.
Platform — Scrollable info screen showing the current device's platform codename, watch model, screen dimensions, shape, color depth, and health sensor capabilities.
Pixel Sampler is a utility, not a showcase. Every screen answers a developer question: what does this font look like? what is this color called? what can this platform do? Decisions favour information density and navigational speed. The watch is the reference; the phone stays in your pocket.
All 7 Pebble platforms supported:
| Platform | Model | Screen | Shape | Color | Touch | Health / HR |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| aplite | Classic / Steel | 144×168 | Rect | B&W | No | None |
| basalt | Time / Time Steel | 144×168 | Rect | 64-color | No | Steps/Sleep/Cal |
| chalk | Time Round | 180×180 | Round | 64-color | No | Steps/Sleep/Cal |
| diorite | Pebble 2 | 144×168 | Rect | B&W | No | Steps/Sleep/Cal + HR |
| flint | Pebble 2 Duo | 144×168 | Rect | B&W | No | Steps/Sleep/Cal |
| emery | Pebble Time 2 | 200×228 | Rect | 64-color | Yes | Steps/Sleep/Cal + HR |
| gabbro | Pebble Round 2 | 260×260 | Round | 64-color | No | Steps/Sleep only |
LECO 60 fonts are only available on emery and gabbro.
- "Bitham Med Numbers" and "LECO" fonts only render digits and punctuation. Alphabetic sample strings show placeholder glyphs — this is correct behavior and is intentionally informative.
- B&W platforms (aplite, diorite, flint) show 4 gray levels in the Colors section.
