namespace fluent.Web.Converters
{
    using System.Reflection;
    using Domain.MicroTypes;
    using FubuCore;
    using FubuCore.Binding;

    public class HexColorConverterFamily :
        IConverterFamily
    {
        public bool Matches(PropertyInfo property)
        {
            return property.PropertyType.IsTypeOrNullableOf<HexColor>();
        }

        public ValueConverter Build(IValueConverterRegistry registry, PropertyInfo property)
        {
            return context => new HexColor((string) context.PropertyValue);
        }
    }
}

Now you can use the HexColor type on your view model and this code will automatically do the conversion for you.

Here is how you register it in your FubuRegistry

  //in your FubuRegistry

    .ConvertUsing<HexColorConverterFamily>();
