About Color Formats

Different color formats are used across various design and development contexts:

  • HEX (Hexadecimal): Used in HTML/CSS, represented as #RRGGBB or shortened to #RGB
  • RGB (Red, Green, Blue): Common in digital design, represented as rgb(0-255, 0-255, 0-255)
  • HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness): Intuitive for humans, represented as hsl(0-360, 0-100%, 0-100%)

Color Tips & Best Practices

Contrast: Ensure sufficient contrast between text and background colors for accessibility (WCAG recommends at least 4.5:1 for normal text).

Consistency: Use a consistent color palette throughout your project for better visual harmony.

Psychology: Different colors evoke different emotions - blue for trust, red for urgency, green for success, etc.

Alpha/Opacity: Consider using rgba() or hsla() when you need transparency in your design.
