Color Converter
Pick a color or type a HEX, rgb(), or hsl() value to see it in HEX, RGB, HSL, and HSV at once. All fields stay in sync and everything runs in your browser.
About the Color Converter
The Color Converter turns one color into HEX, RGB, HSL, and HSV at the same time. Use the native picker to choose a color, or type a HEX, rgb(), or hsl() value and read every format at once. It helps developers and designers move a color between CSS, design tools, and code without manual math. Everything runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded.
How it works
- Click the picker to choose a color, or type a value into the text field as HEX, rgb(), or hsl().
- Read the color in HEX, RGB, HSL, and HSV, with the swatch preview kept in sync.
- Click Copy next to any format to put that value on your clipboard.
- If the typed value cannot be read, an inline message explains the accepted formats.

Frequently asked questions
Which input formats are supported?
The text field reads HEX (#RGB or #RRGGBB), rgb(R, G, B), and hsl(H, S%, L%). The picker outputs HEX. All four formats are shown as output.
What is the difference between HSL and HSV?
Both use hue and saturation, but the third value differs. HSL uses lightness, where 50% is the pure color and 100% is white. HSV uses value, where 100% is the brightest version of the color and 0% is black.
Why do converted values sometimes round?
RGB channels are whole numbers from 0 to 255, and HSL and HSV percentages are rounded to whole numbers. Converting back and forth can shift a value by one step because of this rounding.
Is my data sent anywhere?
No. All conversion runs in your browser. No color values are uploaded or logged.
Does it work offline?
Yes. Once the page has loaded, the conversion runs locally, so the tool keeps working without an active connection.
