Frequently Asked Questions

What color formats are supported?

This tool supports three common color formats: HEX (hexadecimal, e.g., #FF5733), RGB (Red, Green, Blue, e.g., rgb(255, 87, 51)), and HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness, e.g., hsl(9, 100%, 60%)). You can convert between any of these formats instantly.

How do I pick a color?

Use the color picker input (the colored square) to visually select a color. You can also enter colors directly in HEX, RGB, or HSL format, and the tool will automatically convert and display all formats.

What is the difference between RGB and HSL?

RGB (Red, Green, Blue) represents colors as combinations of red, green, and blue light values (0-255 each). HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness) represents colors using hue (0-360°), saturation (0-100%), and lightness (0-100%). HSL is often more intuitive for adjusting color properties like making a color lighter or more saturated.

Can I use this for CSS development?

Yes! This tool is perfect for CSS development. You can pick colors, convert between formats, and copy the HEX, RGB, or HSL values directly into your CSS files. The tool shows the exact format you need for CSS (e.g., rgb(255, 87, 51) or hsl(9, 100%, 60%)).

How accurate are the color conversions?

Color conversions use standard mathematical formulas to convert between color spaces. RGB to HSL and HSL to RGB conversions are mathematically precise. However, due to rounding and the different ways color spaces represent colors, there may be very minor differences when converting back and forth multiple times.

Can I copy the color values?

Yes! Each color format (HEX, RGB, HSL) has a copy button next to it. Click the copy button to copy that specific format to your clipboard for use in your code or design tools.
