## What it is
A modular color picker jQuery plugin for Bootstrap 3/4 that attaches to inputs and provides customizable color selection UI. The project is explicitly no longer maintained after nearly ten years.

## Use cases
- add a color picker to a bootstrap form input
- jquery color picker plugin for bootstrap 4
- let users pick hex or rgb colors in a web form
- inline or popover color picker component
- bootstrap 3 colorpicker with input addon

## When to choose
- you maintain a legacy Bootstrap 3/4 + jQuery app and need a drop-in color picker
- you are forking or adapting an old jQuery colorpicker

## When to avoid
- starting a new project - it is unmaintained and jQuery/Bootstrap 4 based
- using React or modern frameworks - prefer alternatives like React Color
- you need ongoing bug fixes or security updates

## Facets
- artifact type: plugin
- maturity: abandoned
- function: ui-components, form-handling
- domain: frontend, web-development
- platform: browser
- tags: bootstrap, jquery, color-picker, bootstrap4, bootstrap3, unmaintained, nodejs
