What is HEX?

HEX, short for "hexadecimal," is a base-16 system used to represent colors on the web. A HEX color code consists of six digits, made up of numbers from 0-9 and letters from A-F. These codes give precise instructions about the amount of red, green, and blue in a color, ensuring consistent display across various digital platforms.

Why Use HEX Colors?

  • Consistency Across Platforms: HEX ensures that the color you choose looks the same everywhere – from mobile screens to desktop displays.

  • Compact Representation: Instead of juggling three separate RGB values, HEX condenses color information into one compact code.

  • Web Standards: HEX is widely recognized and supported in web development and design, making it an industry favorite.

  • Easy Modification: With a bit of know-how, adjusting a HEX color to a lighter or darker shade is straightforward, providing flexibility in design.
