Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between HEX and RGB?
HEX is a hexadecimal string representation used in CSS (e.g., `#FF5733`). RGB expresses the same color as decimal red, green, blue channels 0–255 (e.g., `rgb(255, 87, 51)`). They represent the same colors differently.
When should I use HSL?
HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness) is ideal for creating color variations — adjust lightness to create tints/shades or saturation to create muted tones.
What is CMYK used for?
CMYK is used in print design (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Key/Black). Convert RGB/HEX to CMYK when preparing designs for professional printing.
Is there a difference between HSL and HSB?
Yes — HSL uses Lightness (0% = black, 100% = white), while HSB/HSV uses Brightness/Value (0% = black, 100% = full color). They're different color models despite similar names.
