HEX Color Codes
HEX codes represent colors with a 6-digit hexadecimal string preceded by a # symbol. Each pair of digits corresponds to the Red, Green, and Blue channels (00–FF). HEX is the most widely used format in CSS and web development.
RGB Color Model
RGB defines colors by mixing Red, Green, and Blue light with values from 0 to 255. It's an additive color model used in screens and displays. CSS syntax: rgb(255, 107, 107). Ideal for programmatic color manipulation.
HSL Color Model
HSL stands for Hue (0–360°), Saturation (0–100%), and Lightness (0–100%). It's the most intuitive model for humans — adjusting hue changes the color, saturation changes vividness, and lightness changes brightness. CSS syntax: hsl(0, 100%, 71%).
Frequently Asked Questions
To convert HEX to RGB, split the 6-digit hex code into three pairs (RR, GG, BB) and convert each pair from hexadecimal to decimal. For example, #FF6B6B becomes R=255, G=107, B=107. Our tool does this conversion instantly — just enter a HEX value and the RGB values update automatically.
HEX uses a 6-character hexadecimal code (e.g. #FF6B6B) and is the most common format in web development. RGB defines colors by Red, Green, and Blue channel values (0–255). HSL describes colors using Hue (0–360°), Saturation (0–100%), and Lightness (0–100%), which is the most intuitive model for designers to adjust colors.
RGB to HSL conversion involves normalizing the R, G, B values to 0–1, finding the min and max channel values, then computing Lightness as the average of min and max, Saturation from the delta between max and min, and Hue based on which channel is dominant. Our tool performs this math instantly — just enter RGB values and the HSL output updates in real time.
