HEX, RGB & HSL Color Picker

What is a Color Picker Tool?

A color picker tool lets you select colors visually and convert between different notations (HEX, RGB, HSL) used in web design. HEX is compact (#FF5733). RGB uses red, green, blue values (255, 87, 51). HSL uses hue, saturation, lightness (9, 100%, 60%) and is often easier to adjust. A good color picker supports all formats and helps you copy values for CSS and HTML.

Tips for Color Workflows

Get the most out of your color picker.

Use HSL for Tweaking

HSL makes it easy to adjust hue (color), saturation (vibrancy), and lightness (brightness) independently.

HEX for Consistency

HEX is widely used in design tools. When moving between Figma and code, HEX often transfers cleanly.

Palettes for Harmony

Use tint, shade, and tone palettes to create a cohesive color system without guessing.
