HEX, HSL, and RGB Converter
In web development, colors can be represented in various formats, each serving different purposes.
HEX Color:
One common representation is the HEX color code, a six-character hexadecimal value that defines a color based on its red, green, and blue components. For example, '#FF5733' represents a shade of orange. The first two characters represent the red intensity, the next two represent green, and the last two represent blue.
HSLA Color:
HSLA, which stands for Hue, Saturation, Lightness, and Alpha, is another way to express colors. HSLA uses values for hue (the type of color), saturation (intensity of color), lightness (brightness), and alpha (transparency). The alpha component allows you to control the color's opacity. For instance, hsla(30, 100%, 50%, 0.8) represents a semi-transparent pure red.
RGBA Color:
RGBA, or Red, Green, Blue, and Alpha, is similar to HSLA but is defined by specifying the intensity of each of the RGB components. An example would be rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.5), representing a translucent red. The alpha channel in RGBA determines the level of transparency.
