Understanding Color Systems: HEX vs RGB
In the world of digital design, colors are represented by different mathematical models. The two most common are HEX (Hexadecimal) and RGB (Red, Green, Blue). Whether you are using tools like Adobe Photoshop, Figma, or coding with CSS, converting between these two is a daily task for creatives. Our Color Converter provides an instant way to switch formats with a live visual preview.
What is a HEX Code?
A HEX code is a six-digit, three-byte hexadecimal number used in HTML, CSS, and other computing applications to represent colors. The bytes represent the red, green, and blue components of the color. For example, #FFFFFF represents pure white, while #000000 represents pure black.
What is RGB?
The RGB color model is an additive model in which Red, Green, and Blue light are added together in various ways to reproduce a broad array of colors. Each value ranges from 0 to 255. For example, rgb(255, 0, 0) is pure red.
