Instruction

Advanced Color Picker & Palette Generator

The Color Picker is a sophisticated design instrument that bridges the gap between creative vision and implementation code. It supports precise selection, deep analysis, and instant format conversion, making it indispensable for web designers, graphic artists, and frontend developers.

Supported Color Models

  • HEX (Hexadecimal): The standard for the web. It is a six-digit code (e.g., #FF5733) representing Red, Green, and Blue values in base-16. Our tool also supports 3-digit shorthand (#F00) and 8-digit alpha codes (#FF000080).
  • RGB (Red, Green, Blue): An additive color model where light is combined to create color. Used for digital screens. Values range from 0 to 255. Example: `rgb(255, 87, 51)`.
  • HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness): A representation designed to align with human perception. 'Hue' is the color degree (0-360°), 'Saturation' is the intensity (0-100%), and 'Lightness' is the brightness (0-100%). It is superior for programmatic color manipulation (e.g., "make this button 10% darker").

Accessibility & WCAG Compliance

Design is not just about aesthetics; it is about usability. This tool includes a built-in Contrast Checker that calculates the contrast ratio between two colors against the WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) standards. It informs you if your text/background combination passes AA or AAA levels, ensuring your site is readable for users with visual impairments.

Palette Theory

Struggling to find colors that match? The tool automatically generates harmonious color schemes based on color theory:

  • Complementary: High contrast colors from opposite sides of the wheel.
  • Analogous: Colors next to each other, creating a serene and comfortable design.
  • Triadic: Three colors evenly spaced, offering vibrant contrast while retaining harmony.
