iro.js is a modular, dependency-free color picker widget for JavaScript built with SVG, supporting hex, RGB, HSV, HSL, and kelvin color formats. It offers composable pre-built UI components, multi-color selection for harmonies, and a small ~9kb bundle.

Use cases

• add a color picker to a web form
• pick colors for smart home RGB LED lighting controls
• select color harmonies and themes with multiple swatches
• convert colors between hex, RGB, HSV, and HSL in the browser
• build a custom-styled color picker without jQuery or CSS files

When to choose

• you need a lightweight, zero-dependency color picker for any JS app or framework
• you want multi-color selection and multiple color format support
• you need a picker for RGB lighting or smart home UIs
• you want a single-script widget with no extra CSS or images

When to avoid

• you need a project under active development - it is officially on hiatus
• you need native platform color pickers or mobile-specific UI
• you need canvas-based or heavily themable pickers beyond the provided SVG components
