Input Type Color

Input type="color" provides a color picker to the user. User can easily choose a color using this color picker.

Note: One thing to remember here, there is no way to set empty string for user. In this case, a default color can be set for the convenience of the user.

The "color" value is used in the type attribute of the input element. As an output, a color picker is displayed in the browser. This type="color" converts the color into the sRGB color space, and its value remains within 8 bits. For this reason, the color is displayed in HEX format like "#123456".
