I don't really know if this makes any sense at all but I wanted to know if there is a way to make the color picker of a color input to just display the hex picker.

If you click on the input the following box is display with the option for rgb:

Instead of that I only want my users to pick HEX values and I was wondering if there is any way to achieve that.

I know that if you click on the arrows it will change, but for some technical issues I can only accept hex values and I was wondering if there is a way to achieve this because I think it would be more user friendly rather than putting a text asking for the user to click on the arrows until the ex picker appears.

Thanks!

You can't make it only display hex, but whatever mode the user chooses the value is stored as hex.

why you don't put a input with place holder of "enter your hex code"? and validate it. if that was a valid hex color then continue else show a error to user
