## Mini App Example

You can find this example in our Github repository:

[supervisely-ecosystem/ui-widgets-demos/input/007\_color\_picker/src/main.py](https://github.com/supervisely-ecosystem/ui-widgets-demos/blob/master/input/007_color_picker/src/main.py)

### Import libraries

```python
import os
import supervisely as sly
from dotenv import load_dotenv
from supervisely.app.widgets import Card, Container, ColorPicker, Text
```

### Init API client

First, we load environment variables with credentials and init API for communicating with Supervisely Instance:

```python
load_dotenv("local.env")
load_dotenv(os.path.expanduser("~/supervisely.env"))

api = sly.Api()
```

### Initialize ColorPicker and Text widgets

```python
color_picker = ColorPicker(show_alpha=False, color_format="hex", compact=False)
color_info = Text("Current color: #20A0FF", "info")
text = Text("Hello, World!", color="#20A0FF", font_size=22)
```

### Create app layout

Prepare a layout for app using `Card` widget with the `content` parameter.

```python
layout = Card(
    "Color Picker",
    content=Container([color_picker, color_info, text]),
)
```

### Create app using layout

Create an app object with layout parameter.

```python
app = sly.Application(layout=layout)
```
