Each part includes a
data-partattribute to help identify them in the DOM.

Controlled Color Picker
To create a controlled Color Picker component, manage the state of the current
color using the value prop and update it when the onValueChange or
onValueChangeEnd event handler is called:
import { ColorPicker } from '@ark-ui/react'
import { useState } from 'react'
const Controlled = () => {
const [currentValue, setCurrentValue] = useState('hsl(20, 100%, 50%)')
return (
<ColorPicker.Root
format="hsla"
value={currentValue}
onValueChange={(details) => setCurrentValue(details.valueAsString)}
onValueChangeEnd={(details) => console.log(details.valueAsString)}
>
{(api) => (
