FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Which colour format should I use in CSS?
All three are valid. HEX is the most common and compact, RGB is handy when you need an alpha channel, and HSL makes it intuitive to lighten, darken or shift the hue.
Does it support shorthand HEX like #f00?
Yes. Three-digit shorthand HEX is expanded automatically and converted to its full six-digit form alongside the RGB and HSL equivalents.
