What is a Color Picker?

A color picker is a tool that allows you to select a color visually and get its code in various formats like HEX, RGB, HSL, and HSV. These codes are used in web design, graphic design, and CSS.

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

HEX (hexadecimal) is a 6-digit code like #EA580C, commonly used in HTML/CSS. RGB uses red, green, and blue values (0-255). HSL uses hue, saturation, and lightness — more intuitive for adjusting colors. HSV is similar to HSL but uses value instead of lightness.

How do I use the color codes in my website?

You can use them in CSS like this: color: #EA580C; or background: rgb(234, 88, 12); or border-color: hsl(21, 90%, 48%);. All three formats are supported in modern browsers.

What are Color Harmonies?

Color harmonies are combinations of colors that look good together. This tool shows you:

• Complementary — opposite color on the wheel
• Analogous — neighboring colors
• Triadic — three evenly spaced colors
• Shades — darker/lighter versions

Is my data stored or shared?
