Frequently Asked Questions
1. How do HEX, RGB and HSL differ?
They describe the same color differently: HEX/RGB by red-green-blue components, HSL by hue/saturation/lightness. HSL is more intuitive for tuning, HEX more common in CSS.
2. Is a slight color difference after conversion normal?
Yes. Conversion between models rounds, so HSL and RGB round-trips can be off by 1, which the eye cannot notice.
