Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between HEX and RGB?▾
HEX and RGB represent the same colors. HEX uses hexadecimal notation (#ff5733) while RGB uses decimal values (rgb(255, 87, 51)). HEX is more compact and commonly used in CSS, while RGB is easier to read and manipulate programmatically.
What is HSL?▾
HSL stands for Hue, Saturation, Lightness. Hue is the color angle (0-360 degrees), Saturation is the color intensity (0-100%), and Lightness is how bright the color is (0-100%). HSL is often more intuitive for picking color variations.
How do I use these color values in CSS?▾
In CSS, you can use any format: color: #ff5733; or color: rgb(255, 87, 51); or color: hsl(11, 100%, 60%); All three produce the same color.
