What is the difference between RGB and HEX?
RGB uses decimal values (0-255) for Red, Green, and Blue channels, while HEX uses hexadecimal notation (#RRGGBB). They represent the same colors but in different formats. HEX is commonly used in CSS, while RGB is often used in design software.
What is HSL and when should I use it?
HSL stands for Hue, Saturation, and Lightness. It is more intuitive for humans to understand and adjust colors. Use HSL when you want to create color variations by adjusting brightness or saturation while keeping the same hue.
How do the color palette types work?
Monochromatic uses different lightness levels of the same hue. Complementary pairs colors opposite on the color wheel. Triadic uses three colors equally spaced on the wheel. Analogous uses colors adjacent to each other for harmonious schemes.

HSL Color
HSL Color (Hue, Saturation, Lightness) is a cylindrical color model that represents colors in a way that is more intuitive for humans to understand and manipulate than RGB. It separates color into three components: hue (the color itself), saturation (color intensity), and lightness (brightness).
Hex Color
Hex Color is a six-digit alphanumeric representation of colors used in web design and digital graphics, consisting of three pairs of hexadecimal values (00-FF) representing red, green, and blue color channels.
RGB Color
RGB Color (Red Green Blue) is an additive color model where red, green, and blue light are combined in various intensities to create a broad spectrum of colors. Each color channel typically ranges from 0 to 255, allowing for over 16 million possible color combinations.
RGBA Color
RGBA Color is an extension of the RGB color model that adds an alpha channel for opacity control, allowing colors to be defined with transparency ranging from fully transparent (0) to fully opaque (1).
