What is HSL?

HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness) represents colors using a cylindrical model. Hue is expressed as a degree on the color wheel (0-360°), Saturation as a percentage (0-100%), and Lightness as a percentage (0-100%). HSL is considered the most human-intuitive color model because adjusting one value predictably changes the color.

What is HEX?

HEX (Hexadecimal) is the most widely used color format on the web. It represents colors using a 6-digit code preceded by a hash (#), where each pair of digits encodes the Red, Green, and Blue channels in base-16 (00-FF). For example, #FF5733 means maximum red (FF), moderate green (57), and low blue (33).
