Live testing color palettes and fonts for web design. Made by a designer who's really great, she runs a YouTube channel and made the site for free use by anyone.
How accurate are the palettes? Would we need to calibrate our monitors or does the site do that for you?
I doubt the site is able to calibrate to individual monitors, as there's almost no way for it to know what you have.
Gotcha. So not too accurate for uncalibrated monitors then. Thanks!
Are there tools like this that are accurate for uncalibrated monitors?

I'm not aware of any other than what I've used in the past in post production and that's ColorChecker Passport Photo 2 by Calibrite ($119.) It's a software that helps you calibrate your monitor so that you can get your edits accurate for print. It also comes with a physical colorchecker that you can use as well for multiple lighting situations. Great tool for photographers that do a lot of post.
I'm sure there's some software out there that is more affordable or free that you can calibrate your monitor with.
