HTML5 input color ?

How to create an input for a HTML5 color picker?

<input type="color" />

@f.FormGroup().EditorFor...?
@f.FormGroup().??

This is a general MVC question rather than a BMVC specific. Please use StackOverflow for these. You'd do it the same as with regular MVC - using html attributes:

@Html.Bootstrap().TextBoxFor(x => x.MyColor).HtmlAttributes(new { type = "color" })

I agree, but a helper with shorter syntax would be useful... 'textbox' doesn't make sense for an html5 colorpicker

Something like would be great:

@Html.Bootstrap().ColorpickerFor(x => x.MyColor);

It would indeed be a bit cleaner, but to me it doesn't sound like the benefit worth the effort
