Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use my operating system's color picker?

Yes! Click the large color preview square to open the native OS color picker (Eyedropper tool) to select any color from your screen or custom palette.

Are the generated values ready for CSS?

Yes. The RGB output is formatted as rgb(R, G, B) and HSL as hsl(H, S%, L%), which can be pasted directly into your CSS or Tailwind config files.

Does it support RGBA or HSLA (with transparency)?

Currently, the tool focuses on solid HEX, RGB, and HSL formats. Alpha channel (opacity) support may be added in a future update.
