HEX to HSL
What is HEX color code?
A HEX color code, often referred to simply as "hex" is a
hexadecimal representation of a color in web design and digital
graphics. It consists of a '#' symbol followed by a combination of six
characters, which can be numbers (0-9) and letters (A-F). These
characters represent the intensity of red, green, and blue (RGB)
components in the color, allowing for a vast range of colors to be
specified with precision. HEX color codes are widely used in HTML and
CSS to define colors for websites, providing a standardized method for
designers and developers to ensure consistent and accurate color
reproduction across different platforms and browsers.
What is HSL color code?
HSL color code, which stands for Hue, Saturation, Lightness, is a
color representation system used in digital design and computing. Unlike
RGB, which is based on the red, green, and blue primary colors, HSL
focuses on different aspects of color.
-
Hue: Represents the type of color, ranging from 0 to 360
degrees around the color wheel, where red is 0, green is 120, and blue
is 240, for example.
-
Saturation: Measures the purity of the color, with 0% being
grayscale and 100% being fully saturated.
-
Lightness: Specifies the brightness of the color, with 0% being
black, 100% being white, and 50% being the original color.
HSL color codes provide a more intuitive and user-friendly way to work
with colors, making it easier to adjust color attributes like hue,
saturation, and lightness for various design purposes in web and graphic
design.
