About This Tool

Color Picker is a browser-based tool that lets you select and convert colors between multiple formats. Choose from preset color swatches, adjust hue and opacity with sliders, or type HEX and RGB values directly. The tool instantly displays the color in HEX, RGB, HSL, and HSV formats with one-click copy for each. All processing happens locally in your browser — no data is ever sent to a server.

Frequently Asked Questions

What color formats does this tool support?

The tool displays colors in four formats: HEX (e.g., #ff6b6b), RGB/RGBA (e.g., rgb(255, 107, 107)), HSL/HSLA (e.g., hsl(0, 100%, 71%)), and HSV (e.g., hsv(0, 58%, 100%)). When opacity is less than 100%, the RGBA and HSLA formats are used automatically.

How do I adjust the opacity of a color?

Use the alpha slider below the hue slider. Drag it to the left to decrease opacity or to the right to increase it. The color preview and all format values update in real time. When opacity is below 100%, the HEX output includes an alpha channel, and the RGB/HSL outputs switch to their rgba/hsla variants.

What is the difference between HSL and HSV?

Both are cylindrical color models, but they define lightness differently. HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness) measures lightness from black to pure color to white, so a lightness of 100% is always white. HSV (Hue, Saturation, Value) measures value from black to pure color, so a value of 100% is the purest form of the color. HSL is more commonly used in CSS, while HSV is often used in graphics software.

Can I enter a HEX or RGB value directly?

Yes. You can type a HEX value (e.g., #3b82f6) or an RGB value (e.g., rgb(59, 130, 246)) directly into the input fields. The tool will instantly convert and update all other format displays, the color preview, and the slider positions.

How do I copy a color value?

Click the Copy button next to any format value. The color value will be copied to your clipboard in the exact format shown (e.g., #ff6b6b for HEX, rgb(255, 107, 107) for RGB). You can then paste it directly into your CSS, design tool, or code editor.
