react-colorful is a tiny (~3 KB gzipped) color picker component for React and Preact applications. It is dependency-free, tree-shakeable, written in strict TypeScript, and follows WAI-ARIA accessibility guidelines.

Use cases

  • add a color picker to a React form
  • let users pick hex or rgba colors in a design tool
  • replace react-color with a much smaller bundle
  • build an accessible color selection UI with keyboard and screen reader support
  • add a mobile-friendly touch color picker to a Preact app
  • customize a color picker's appearance with CSS

When to choose

  • you need a lightweight, zero-dependency color picker for React or Preact
  • bundle size and performance matter
  • you need accessibility (WAI-ARIA) and mobile/touch support out of the box
  • you want TypeScript types included

When to avoid

  • you need a non-React framework like Vue or Angular
  • you need advanced features like Photoshop-style pickers or palette management offered by larger libraries
  • your project is not component-based frontend web development
