Understanding Color Models
This tool provides three common ways to represent the same color. Here is what they mean and where to use them.
| Format | Example | What it Means | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| HEX | #FF5733 | A 6-digit code representing Red, Green, and Blue values. | Web Design (CSS, HTML). The most common format for web development. |
| RGB | rgb(255, 87, 51) | Values of **R**ed, **G**reen, and **B**lue light, each from 0 to 255. | Digital design (Photoshop) and web design (CSS), especially when opacity (RGBA) is needed. |
| HSL | hsl(12, 100%, 60%) | **H**ue (the color on the wheel, 0-360), **S**aturation (0-100%), and **L**ightness (0-100%). | Human-readable adjustments. It's easy to make a color "lighter" (increase L) or "more vibrant" (increase S). |
