If you are trying to make something like one million checkboxe this is not a very good UI imo.

Setting a color in a box should have been quicker. Before opening the page, i was expecting something like /r/place. Its not that. I don't see why i should be toggling a box at all. If you have more boxes visible at a time, it will give a feeling of canvas you are trying to draw by setting colors. It will have a purpose.

In its current state, i don't see a point.

edit: instead of free choice of colors, you could give a pallete to pick color from. It will be much quicker than chosing color using sliders from a popup.

Thank you for the valuable feedback. I understand your points about the UI and the speed of interaction. I am considering different ways to enhance the user experience, including possibly a quicker color selection method and a more interactive canvas like feature. Your suggestion about using a predefined palette is a great idea, i will look into implementing that to improve speed and user engagement. Thanks for helping me make this better ...
