# HeroUI Color Area

> HeroUI v3 ColorArea is a 2D color picker surface for adjusting two channels of a color at once (e.g. saturation/brightness) via a draggable thumb. Built on the real @heroui/react package with @heroui/styles, it supports controlled and uncontrolled value, disabled state, selectable color space & channels, a dotted-grid variant, and a custom render function. A thin re-export of the upstream component so consumers install and render the genuine HeroUI primitive.
