Frequently asked questions

What is a hex color code?

A hex code is a six-digit hexadecimal notation for an sRGB color, written #RRGGBB. Each pair runs from 00 to FF, so #FF0000 means red 255, green 0, blue 0. Three-digit shorthand such as #F00 expands to #FF0000.

How many colors can a color picker represent?

An 8-bit-per-channel picker covers 256 × 256 × 256 = 16,777,216 colors, usually written as 16.7 million. Adding an alpha channel multiplies that by 256 for transparency levels.

Should I use HEX or HSL in CSS?

Both are valid. HEX is compact and universally supported; HSL is easier to reason about when you need lighter, darker, or desaturated variants of one hue. Pick one convention per project and convert only when you need to share a value.

Why do the same HEX values look different on my phone?

Screens differ in gamma, white point, calibration, and brightness, so identical codes render differently. Check critical colors on a calibrated display, and never judge contrast by eye alone — measure the ratio instead.
