Color input
A native color picker shown as a rounded swatch.
Example
<div class="flex items-center gap-3">
<input type="color" class="color-input color-input-sm" value="#0ea5e9" aria-label="Small color">
<input type="color" class="color-input" value="#8b5cf6" aria-label="Brand color">
<input type="color" class="color-input color-input-lg" value="#f43f5e" aria-label="Large color">
</div>Classes
3 classes. Click a name to copy it. Utilities on the same element always win over component defaults, so any of them can be adjusted with plain utility classes.
| Class | Type | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Base | Base class of the color input. On an <input> in the example. Sets border, text color, background, shadow, not-allowed cursor and opacity, and 6 custom properties.CSS |
|
| Size | Small size. On an <input> in the example. Sets 4 custom properties.CSS |
|
| Size | Large size. On an <input> in the example. Sets 4 custom properties.CSS |
Usage
Components ship inside the same stylesheet as the utilities. There is nothing else to install and no script to load: link Monsoon and write the markup.

<!-- Color input: start from the base class, then add modifiers -->
<div class="flex items-center gap-3">
<input type="color" class="color-input color-input-sm" value="#0ea5e9" aria-label="Small color">
<input type="color" class="color-input" value="#8b5cf6" aria-label="Brand color">
<input type="color" class="color-input color-input-lg" value="#f43f5e" aria-label="Large color">
</div>Theme it with --seed on any ancestor, for example style="--seed: #0d9488", and force a scheme with class="dark" or class="light" on a wrapper.
Accessibility
- Give every control a visible
labellinked withfor, or anaria-labelwhen the purpose is obvious from context. Link help and error text witharia-describedby; invalid styles use:user-invalid, so they appear only after the user interacts. - Every interactive part shows a visible focus ring with
:focus-visible, and tone colors pair with-foregroundtokens that keep text at 4.5:1 or better in light and dark mode.
