node-red-contrib-ui-iro-color-picker

Alternative color picker node utilizing the iro.js widget. The main credit goes to James for the iro.js widget.

I was searching for a colour picker which is usable in different ways and on mobile devices for a long time. iro.js popped up in the forum from time to time and to be honest I hoped that someone else (with more experience) could do the job. In the end I was procrastinating other jobs and thought it would be a nice small project to learn how to implement a custom ui-node.

The node-red widget is highly customizable inside the editor by choosing and combining several components either as a widget or a popup window. The example flow is available via import/Examples.
