Color converter
Convert between HEX, RGB, and HLS color models.
In short
Convert any color value between HEX, RGB, RGBA, HSL, and HSLA formats.
What Is Color Converter?
Color Converter takes a color value in one format and returns the equivalent values in all other supported formats — HEX, RGB, RGBA, HSL, and HSLA.
When You Need to Convert Color Formats
Different tools, design systems, and CSS properties use different color formats. A design file might use HEX values while a CSS animation requires HSL. Color Converter lets you switch between formats without calculating the conversion manually.
Supported Formats
- HEX — #rrggbb (e.g. #14b87a)
- RGB — rgb(r, g, b) (e.g. rgb(20, 184, 122))
- RGBA — rgb with alpha channel (e.g. rgba(20, 184, 122, 1))
- HSL — hue, saturation, lightness (e.g. hsl(158, 80%, 40%))
- HSLA — HSL with alpha channel
Best For
- Frontend developers converting brand colors between CSS formats
- Designers matching color values across tools
- Theme builders translating design tokens between systems
Limitations of this tool
- Color name inputs (e.g. "red", "tomato") are not supported — use a HEX, RGB, or HSL value.
Frequently asked questions
- What color formats does it support?
- HEX (#rrggbb and #rrggbbaa), RGB, RGBA, HSL, and HSLA.
- What is the difference between HSL and RGB?
- RGB defines color by red, green, and blue channel values. HSL defines color by hue (color wheel angle), saturation (intensity), and lightness — which many designers find more intuitive to adjust.
- What is an alpha channel?
- The alpha channel controls opacity. A value of 1 (or 100%) is fully opaque; 0 is fully transparent.
