Color Formats Explained

HEX

Hexadecimal color codes use a 6-digit combination of numbers (0-9) and letters (A-F) preceded by a # symbol. Example: #FF5733

This is the most common format used in web design and CSS.

RGB

RGB (Red, Green, Blue) values range from 0 to 255 for each color channel. Example: rgb(255, 87, 51)

Used in CSS and digital design to define colors by their red, green, and blue components.

HSL

HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness) represents colors in a more intuitive way. Example: hsl(14, 100%, 60%)

Particularly useful for creating color variations like lighter/darker or more/less saturated versions.
