An example to check

Input and settings

#ff0000

Expected result

RGB: 255, 0, 0
HSL: 0°, 100%, 50%

The red channel is 255 and the other channels are zero. Hue 0° represents red in HSL. Paste either the HEX or RGB value into CSS and check the browser preview.

Scope and limitations

  • Converting values does not guarantee matching appearance across displays or printers. Check the color space and a physical proof for print work.
  • An attractive foreground color may still make text hard to read. Use the contrast checker to assess it against the intended background.
