— what it is

Colour codes exist in multiple formats and they don't translate between them in ways that are easy to do mentally. Your design tool gives you a hex value, your CSS needs an RGB value, the print team wants CMYK, and the animator wants HSL. The Color Code Converter accepts any format and instantly shows all the equivalents — HEX, RGB, HSL, HSV, CMYK — alongside CSS named colours where applicable.

Designers moving between tools that use different colour formats, developers translating design tokens into CSS, print and digital teams working from a shared brand colour — any situation where you need the same colour in multiple representations at once.

— frequently asked questions

What formats are supported?

HEX, RGB, HSL, HSV, CMYK, and CSS named colours.

Why do I need CMYK?

CMYK is the colour model used in print. If your brand colour needs to match between digital and print, you'll need both the HEX and CMYK values.

Are the conversions exact?

HEX, RGB, and HSL conversions are exact. CMYK is an approximation because the print colour gamut differs from screen.

Can I start from a colour picker?

Yes — the colour picker input is available alongside text-based input.

Why doesn't my colour have a CSS named equivalent?

Only about 140 colours have CSS named equivalents. Most colours won't have an exact named match.
