FAQ
What is the difference between HEX, RGB and HSL — which should I use?
They describe the same color in different ways. HEX is the most common in CSS; rgb() is handy when you work with alpha or code; hsl() splits hue, saturation and lightness, which makes manual tweaking more intuitive. This tool keeps all three in sync.
How accurate are the conversions?
Conversions use the standard sRGB algorithm locally. HEX to RGB is an exact integer conversion; HSL is displayed as rounded degrees and percentages, so converting back may differ by one unit at most — that is normal rounding.
Can I pick a color from anywhere on my screen?
No. This is a web color component, so it only picks from the system color dialog. To sample colors from other apps on your screen, use your OS screenshot color tool or a dedicated picker app.
Will colors change in dark mode?
No. Color values are absolute — the page theme only affects the interface appearance, never the picked or converted colors.
