Hexed.
one job: convert colors
About this tool
Hexed. converts colors between the three formats designers and developers use most: hex codes (like #9B87C4), RGB, and HSL. Edit any one field and the others update instantly, or pick a color visually with the built-in color picker.
It also generates a strip of shades and tints of your current color automatically, useful for building out a consistent color palette without manually calculating lighter and darker variants.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert hex to RGB?
Type or paste your hex code into the Hex field, the RGB and HSL fields update automatically, and the swatch above shows the color.
What is the difference between RGB and HSL?
RGB defines a color by its red, green, and blue light values. HSL defines the same color by hue, saturation, and lightness, which is often more intuitive for adjusting a color's brightness or intensity without changing its hue.
How do I get lighter and darker shades of a color?
Yes, the shades and tints strip below the color fields shows your current color at a range of lightness levels. Click any swatch to switch to that variant.
Is this color converter free?
Yes, completely free, with no signup or limits on how many colors you can convert.
