Create a Color Picker

1. How Does the Color Picker Display?


The Color Picker displays as a customizable color input field, allowing customers to manually select any color they want using a color wheel or by entering a hex code. It’s perfect for use cases where customers need flexibility in choosing a unique color rather than choosing from predefined options.


Example on storefront:


  • A product allows customers to pick any color they like for custom printing, painting, or embroidery.
