Hi guys,

saw the color picker of TailwindCSS and wanted to ask if this is a “secret”? Or is there any pointer and/or documentation to rebuild this by myself? I’m asking, cause it would be a perfect fit for my Reginald Framework.

Any help required and thanks in advance.

Cheers

Thomas

Hi @Thomas,  
No specific documentation for this, yet. I might be able to look through the code (haven’t seen the final production version) and give you some pointers.  
Cheers,  
Bob

Hi again,  
I just got a chance to crack open the code. The actual Tailwind add-on is encoded. I should have realized this - likely needed for controlling license access. At any point, In looking at the make-up of the control and poking around in the exposed codebase, it looks like it is built through a pretty standard custom control. Here is some documentation on them - scroll to the section nearest the bottom of the document.
