📘 How It Works

1

HEX Format

#RRGGBB represents RGB as 2-digit hex values. #FF0000 = bright red. Range 00-FF for each component.

2

RGB Format

RGB uses decimal values 0-255 for red, green, blue. rgb(255, 0, 0) = bright red. Direct color representation.

3

HSL Format

HSL uses Hue (0-360°), Saturation (0-100%), Lightness (0-100%). More intuitive for color adjustments.

4

Color Conversion

Mathematical formulas convert between formats. HEX→RGB is base conversion. RGB↔HSL involves color space transformation.

5

Live Preview

Changes update the color preview instantly. Edit any format and see results in all formats immediately.

💡 Common Use Cases
