## Features

- Three input modes in a segmented tab: grid palette, spectrum canvas, and RGB sliders
- Sliding tab indicator that animates between the three modes
- Spectrum canvas with draggable saturation/value cursor and a hue slider
- RGB sliders paired with numeric inputs kept in sync
- Opacity slider with a live percentage readout and checkerboard track
- Hex input with 6- or 8-digit (alpha) parsing and a copy-to-clipboard button
- Saved swatches you can add from the current color and remove via right-click

## Accessibility

- **ARIA labels** — Tab, slider, numeric input, copy, and swatch controls carry `aria-label` values
- **Named swatches** — Grid cells and saved swatches expose their hex value via `aria-label`
- **Native inputs** — Range and number inputs are keyboard operable and labeled
- **Decorative icons** — Inline SVG glyphs are presentational within labeled buttons
- **Reduced motion** — `prefers-reduced-motion: reduce` disables tab and panel transitions

## Keyboard shortcuts

- `Enter` — Commit the hex input value
