About This Tool


Different color formats serve different purposes. HEX is compact for web use, RGB is intuitive for digital design, and HSL makes it easy to adjust lightness and saturation.

Our converter instantly translates between all major formats. Enter a color in any format and see it in all others. The visual preview confirms you have the right color.

The color picker lets you select colors visually if you do not have a specific value. Adjust hue, saturation, and lightness directly and get all format values.

HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness) is particularly useful for creating color variations. Keep hue constant and adjust lightness to create shades, or adjust saturation for muted/vivid versions.

FAQ

What is the difference between RGB and HEX?
They represent the same thing differently. RGB uses decimal (0-255), HEX uses hexadecimal (00-FF). #FF0000 equals rgb(255,0,0).
When should I use HSL?
HSL is great when you need to create color variations. Adjusting lightness creates shades; adjusting saturation creates muted/vivid versions.
What is HSV vs HSL?
Both use Hue, but HSV uses Value (brightness) while HSL uses Lightness. HSL tends to be more intuitive for adjustments.
How do I make colors accessible?
Ensure sufficient contrast between text and background. Use tools like WCAG contrast checkers.
Can I convert CMYK?
This tool focuses on web formats. CMYK conversion requires print color profiles for accuracy.
