About this Color Picker
The Color Picker lets you choose a color visually using your browser's built-in color picker, then instantly shows the matching HEX, RGB and HSL codes. It is a quick way to grab a color value without typing a code by hand.

How the calculation works
The browser's native color input returns a HEX value directly; RGB and HSL are calculated from that HEX value using standard color-space conversion formulas.
How to use it
- Select the color swatch to open the picker.
- Choose any color.
- Read the HEX, RGB and HSL values shown below the swatch.
Practical example
Picking a shade of blue might show HEX #3157d5, which the tool also displays as RGB and HSL values.
Frequently asked questions
Does this save colors for later?
No, values update live and are not stored between visits.
Can I type a HEX code instead of using the picker?
Use the Color Converter tool if you already have a HEX code and want RGB and HSL without opening a color picker.
Does the picker look different on different devices?
Yes, the color picker interface is provided by your browser or operating system, so its appearance varies.
