JQuery Color Picker

Question

I need to have a JQuery color Picker, where I can change the different HTML elements on a page. It should be easy to implement, I should be able to pick a color, enter RGB values and Hex values. Which plugin is the best hassle free to use.

https://github.com/tovic/color-picker is a tiny color picker plugin written in pure JavaScript. It is a hook-based plugin so you can simply create another function/class wrapper to extend your own custom features. — Taufik Nurrohman, Jul 19 '16 at 02:54

This jQuery plugin is quite simple. You can enter Hex value but there is no method for RGB (as seems from demo page).

How about ColorPicker? It allows you to enter hex/RGB/HSB, or click on a nice colour chart.

That plugin's pretty broken in Chrome. – Dominic Rodger Nov 03 '09 at 16:08

Farbtastic is my color picker of choice:

The js file is only 10kb, or less than 5kb if you minify it.

I have brought some of the MIT like jQuery color picker on this website. All of them have the links back to their original sites that have their implementation documentation in case you decide to use one of them.

But for which one is the "Best" one, you might have to judge it by yourself.
