Introducing Elemental

Elemental is a tool to quickly audit all the visual elements on a page.

This project came into fruition because I needed to refactor a large amount of CSS on a series of, well, complicated pages.

It works by loading the page in PhantomJS, rendering every element on a page to a PNG base64 string, streaming the results back via websocket, and sorting by visual similarity.

Be gentle!  It's still an early beta.

Code here.
