Write for Us

Pitch a guest article on contrast, palettes, fonts, or design-to-dev workflows. Unpaid guest posts. Email a title, outline, and sample.

Reach designers and developers who use free color, font, and export tools. Pitch a practical article to Sherotree.

What we want

Practical tutorials and case studies tied to real workflows. If it helps someone ship accessible UI or a cleaner handoff, it is in scope.
  • WCAG and contrast

    How teams check ratios, fix failing pairs, and use Colour Contrast Checker in product UI reviews.

  • Color systems and palettes

    Tokens, ramps, dark themes, and generators such as Material 3 Color Palette or Color Palette From Name.

  • Fonts and web fonts

    Licensing, pairing, and converting files for the web with tools such as TTF to WOFF2 Converter.

  • Design-to-dev handoff

    Specs, tokens, and the last mile from Figma or a mockup into production CSS.

  • Free design tooling workflows

    Browser-first paths for export, compression, mockups, and similar jobs people already do on Tools.

  • Accessibility for product UI

    Focus, color independence, and other checks that sit next to contrast, not only on top of it.

What we do not want

We read every pitch. These are declined without a long back-and-forth.
  1. Pure SEO spam: Keyword stuffing, spun directories, or articles written only to place a link.

  2. Unverified AI dumps: Generic copy with no workflow, no screenshots, and no check a practitioner can run.

  3. Undisclosed paid plugs: Product promotion without saying who paid or that the author is affiliated.

  4. Off-topic lifestyle: Travel, wellness, finance, or other posts that do not serve design or frontend work.

How to pitch

Send one short email. Use the subject line Guest pitch: <title>. Address Sherotree at support@sherotree.com.
  1. Proposed title

    A specific working title, not a topic bucket.

  2. Outline

    Two or three sentences on the problem, the steps, and what the reader can reuse.

  3. Writing sample

    A prior URL or a short excerpt. Unpublished drafts are fine if they show your voice.

  4. Bio and byline

    One or two lines plus the name you want on the article.

Editorial notes

We keep this simple so you know what you are agreeing to before you write.
  • 01

    Original work preferred

    Unpublished articles come first. Say so if the piece ran elsewhere.

  • 02

    Light edits

    We may edit for clarity, house style, and factual checks. We will not rewrite your point of view.

  • 03

    Reasonable backlinks

    A byline link to your site or social profile is fine. Do not pad the body with extra URLs.

  • 04

    No guarantee

    A pitch or a full draft can still be declined. Fit and quality decide, not volume.
