Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between HSL and HSV?
HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness) and HSV (Hue, Saturation, Value) are similar but differ in how they represent brightness. HSL is often preferred for web design as it aligns with CSS syntax.
How do I check color accessibility?
The tool shows WCAG contrast ratios when you select background and foreground colors. It indicates whether color combinations meet AA or AAA accessibility standards.
Can I save colors for later?
The tool maintains a history of recent colors. You can also use the preset palettes for common colors.
