HEX
Hexadecimal color code starting with #. 6-digit represents RGB (two hex digits per channel), 8-digit adds alpha transparency. Most commonly used in web development.
#FF0000 / #FF000080 RGB / RGBA
Additive color model using red, green, and blue light. Each channel ranges 0-255. RGBA adds an alpha channel (0-255) for transparency. Standard format for screen display.
rgb(255, 0, 0) HSL / HSLA
Hue-Saturation-Lightness color model. H is position on the color wheel (0-360°), S is saturation (0-100%), L is lightness (0-100%). More intuitive than RGB for humans.
hsl(0, 100%, 50%) HSV / HSVA
Hue-Saturation-Value color model (also known as HSB). H is hue (0-360°), S is saturation (0-100%), V is brightness value (0-100%). Commonly used in image editing and design software color pickers.
hsv(0, 100%, 100%) CMYK
Cyan-Magenta-Yellow-Key (black) subtractive color model, the standard for four-color printing. Each channel 0-100%. Has a different gamut than RGB — some RGB colors cannot be precisely converted.
cmyk(0%, 100%, 100%, 0%) CIE LAB
Device-independent color space defined by the International Commission on Illumination. L is lightness (0-100), a is green-to-red (-128~127), b is blue-to-yellow (-128~127). Perceptually uniform — color differences are proportional to numerical differences.
lab(53, 80, 67) Color Code Converter supports bidirectional conversion between HEX, RGB, HSL, HSV, CMYK and CIE LAB color formats. All calculations run locally in your browser — no data upload, your privacy is protected. Alpha channel is fully supported with real-time color preview.
