Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between HEX, RGB, and HSL?

HEX uses a six-character hexadecimal code (#FF5733). RGB specifies red, green, and blue values from 0-255. HSL uses hue (0-360 degrees), saturation (0-100%), and lightness (0-100%). All three can represent the same colors.

Which color format should I use in CSS?

All three formats are valid in CSS. HEX is the most compact. RGB is intuitive for programmatic manipulation. HSL is best when you want to adjust lightness or saturation while keeping the same hue.

What is color accessibility?

Color accessibility ensures sufficient contrast between text and background colors for users with visual impairments. WCAG 2.1 recommends a minimum contrast ratio of 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text.

How do I find complementary colors?

Complementary colors are opposite each other on the color wheel (180 degrees apart in HSL). For example, the complement of blue (hue 240) is orange (hue 60). This tool helps you explore color relationships.
