What are Color Formats?

Colors can be represented in different formats depending on the context. Web development commonly uses HEX and RGB, while design tools often use HSL for better color manipulation.

Color Format Details

• HEX: Hexadecimal format (e.g., #FF5733). Most common in web development. 6 digits represent RGB values.
• RGB: Red, Green, Blue format (e.g., rgb(255, 87, 51)). Values range from 0-255. Native to web browsers.
• HSL: Hue, Saturation, Lightness format (e.g., hsl(11, 100%, 61%)). More intuitive for color selection and modification.

Use Cases

• Converting design tool colors to web formats
• Creating color palettes and themes
• Debugging CSS color issues
• Converting between different design software formats
• Accessibility color contrast checking

Tips

• Use the color picker for visual selection
• Enter HEX values with or without the # symbol
• HSL is great for creating lighter/darker variants of a color
• Copy results directly to your code
