What is Color Converter?

A color converter transforms color values between the three most common web formats: HEX (#ff6600), RGB (rgb(255, 102, 0)), and HSL (hsl(24, 100%, 50%)). Use the color picker for visual selection or type any value to convert instantly.

How to use

  1. Use the color picker to visually select a color, or type a HEX, RGB, or HSL value.
  2. Click Convert.
  3. View the equivalent values in all three formats.
  4. Copy the format you need.

Common use cases

Converting design tool colors (usually HEX) to CSS format, adjusting hue and saturation with HSL, matching colors across different codebases, finding RGB values for canvas or WebGL work.

FAQ
What input formats are accepted?

HEX values (#RRGGBB) and RGB values in the rgb(r, g, b) format.

Is shorthand HEX supported?

Not yet. Use the full 6-digit hex format like #FF6B2B.

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

HEX and RGB both specify red, green, and blue values. HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness) is more intuitive for adjusting colors — change lightness without affecting the hue.

Can I enter an RGB value with percentages?

Type the values as integers (0–255) for each channel: RGB(255, 102, 0). Percentage-based RGB is less common and not supported by this tool.

Why do designers prefer HSL?

HSL makes it easy to create color variations. To make a color lighter, increase the L value. To desaturate, reduce S. This is much more intuitive than adjusting RGB channels.

What is an alpha channel and is it supported?

Alpha controls opacity (0 = transparent, 1 = opaque). This tool converts opaque colors. For RGBA or HSLA values, add the alpha manually to the converted output.
