Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Hex and RGB?
Hex uses hexadecimal (base-16) notation with 6 characters. RGB uses decimal values from 0-255 for each color channel. Both represent the same colors, just in different formats.
Can I use shortened hex codes?
Yes! 3-character hex codes like #F63 are automatically expanded to #FF6633. This tool handles both formats.
What is HSL?
HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness) is another color model that's more intuitive for adjusting colors. Hue is the color type, Saturation is intensity, and Lightness is brightness.
