Hello everyone, welcome back to iOS Tech. We are back with another immersive coding journey. Today, we are about to make the search for the perfect shade of blue or that unique tint of orange for your projects a whole lot easier. In this live coding session, we are taking on the challenge of building a Color Picker. But here’s the twist: we are teaming up with OpenAI’s brilliant language model, ChatGPT, to dive deep into the hues and gradients of the coding world.
If you are a color enthusiast or just curious about the magic of coding with AI, stay tuned. It’s time to paint our canvas with code.
To start, we will create a new chat with ChatGPT and ask it to write code to build a modern and professional Color Picker using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Let’s see how it will help us.
After generating the code, we will set up our project in Visual Studio Code. We will create an HTML file, index.html, and paste the generated code. We will also create a CSS file, style.css, and a JavaScript file, scripts.js, as mentioned in the generated code.
Next, we will run the project in the browser to see the Color Picker in action. We can customize the Color Picker by clicking on the color button and selecting a color. We can also see the preview of the selected color and the corresponding color code. Additionally, we want to add a button that copies the color code to the clipboard.
To implement this feature, we will ask ChatGPT to make the necessary changes to our code. It will modify the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to add the functionality of displaying the color code and copying it to the clipboard. The generated code will be well-commented, making it easy to understand and modify in the future.
Once the modifications are made, we will replace the existing code with the updated code. We will test the Color Picker again to ensure that everything is working as expected. We can select a color, see the color code, and copy it to the clipboard.
Finally, we will discuss the code and the modifications made by ChatGPT. We will explain how the Color Picker works and the use of the clipboard API to copy the color code. We will also mention that although the code works now, the executeCommand method used for copying text to the clipboard is deprecated in modern browsers. The recommended approach is to use the clipboard API.
In conclusion, building a Color Picker with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript is made easier with the help of ChatGPT. The generated code is well-commented and can be easily customized. This project showcases the possibilities of using AI in web development and demonstrates how ChatGPT can assist in writing code.
