How to Pick and Convert Colors?

Finding the perfect shade is easy. Use our visual picker or specific codes to translate colors between formats.

  1. Visual Picker: Click the colored square or the small color input to open your browser's native color wheel.
  2. Input Code: Type a HEX code (e.g., `#FF5733`) directly into the HEX field.
  3. Instant Conversion: The tool automatically calculates the matching RGB and HSL values.
  4. Copy Key: Click the copy icon next to any value to save it to your clipboard for use in CSS or Photoshop.

Understanding Color Formats

  • HEX (Hexadecimal): The standard for web design (CSS). It uses 6 chars to represent Red, Green, and Blue.
  • RGB (Red, Green, Blue): Defines how much light of each primary color is added. Used in screens and digital displays.
  • HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness): A more human-friendly format. Changing 'Lightness' makes a color brighter or darker without finding a new code.

Why use this Color Converter?

Designers often receive assets in one format (like a brand guideline in CMYK or RGB) but need to implement it in another (like CSS HEX).

This toolbridges that gap instantly. It runs locally, so there is no lag or server delay.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the alpha channel?

The alpha channel controls transparency (opacity). Common formats like RGBA include this. Our basic tool focuses on solid colors (100% opacity) for simplicity.

Do you support CMYK?

Currently, we support digital-native formats (HEX, RGB, HSL). CMYK is primarily for print, and conversion varies by printer profile, so it is coming in a later advanced update.
