Everything would be dark without colors. But thanks to their abundance, the
world seems bright and colorful, and it is filled with millions of shades. Color
Hex is an online tool that can help you identify a particular color by its name
or numeric code. The list includes simple primary colors and touches extended
options. And this service allows you to quickly find color combinations for your
perfect project.


INTRODUCTION TO WEB COLORS

Most of us spend time exploring the Internet, looking for exciting pictures or
information, and the majority pays attention precisely to the web interface
(fonts, colors). Thus, color is part and parcel of every website, which helps
make the first impression about it and engages visitors for a long time.
Therefore, many web developers or people who deal with HTML or CSS should know
more about all colors and their variety.

Dealing with color requires a good understanding of how it works. There are
patterns of colors that designers face on a daily basis. But there are other,
less popular tones and shades. Let’s dig deeper and look at the complete
classification of them.


COLOR PATTERNS

In order for the site to look beautiful, the developers have to select certain
color schemes. Their selection is almost no problem, but to make sure that the
colors and shades complement each other, emphasizing the right points, it is a
quite difficult task. A color model is an abstract form of describing color
representation in the form of certain components or coordinates that consist of
three or more values. Below are the most common color patterns.


RGB

RGB (Red, Green, and Blue) is an additive color model. Its prime colors are the
same colors indicated in its title. It means that when you mix all the colors
together, you get white. This model is used in all electronic devices, like
computers or smartphones. It is written in the form: RGB (0,0,0), each of the
colors can vary from 0 to 255 inclusive, where the value of 0,0,0 refers to
black color, and the value of triple 255 goes to white. Additionally, a fourth
parameter can be added – the Alpha channel, which demonstrates the level of
transparency of a specific color.


RGBA

RGBA (Red, Green, Blue, and Alpha) indicates on a little specification of the
color with one extra digit. This digit describes the transparency of the color.
The value can take either 0 (fully transparent) or 1 (fully opaque). A value of
0.5 makes the paint translucent.




HEX

HEX (Hexadecimal) looks like this #102945. And how to figure out what exactly
this color is? The first two digits for red, the second for green, and the third
for blue. Each character can take on the following values: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,
7, 8, 9 and a, b, c, d, e, f. Where #000000 is black, and #ffffffff is white.


CMYK

CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key) is a scheme of color formation by the
implementation of subtractive method. This color model includes: cyan, magenta,
yellow, and the key color, which is black. This model is used in the printing
industry for color printing. Paper, like all materials, reflects light. So,
there is so much light reflected from this type of surface. Even though black
can be obtained by combining yellow, cyan, and magenta paints in equal
proportions, this approach is insufficient for several technical reasons. So,
black is used separately.


HSL AND HSV

HSL (Hue, Saturation, and Lightness) describes paints based on these three
components. The first parameter is the hue, expressed in degrees from 0 to 360,
defining the attitude of the color on the wheel. The second one is saturation,
defined as a percentage between 0% and 100%, indicating how saturated (bright)
the color will be. The final indicator is lightening, expressed as a percentage
similar to saturation, but lightening means how light or dark the color is. HSV
(Hue, Saturation, and Value) is an exponential color model, which is close to
HSL, but with a difference in focuses. This pattern shows how paints appear
under light. Considered the most common color patterns, you are ready to get to
know with something more advanced.


HTML COLOR NAMES


BASIC COLORS

Let’s start with an Easy level – the basic colors. This group is well-known for
everyone because it contains colors with standard names, and there are only 16
of them. But the problem is that a computer does not know colors by the names
you know. Since computers “understand” only binary and hexadecimal calculus. So,
hexadecimal is used to determine the brightness of the channel in the RGB color
model.

In HTML, each color code consists of three hexadecimal blocks, whose values
classified from 00 to ff. For instance:
 * Black - #000000;
 * White - #ffffffff;
 * Red - #ffff0000.
 * Yellow - #ffffff00.

At this point, there is no need to select each shade manually, as there is the
Color Hex service. But let’s move forward to an Advance level.


EXTENDED COLORS

Of course, there are more than 16 colors, and those colors are specified into a
separate group of extended colors. For HTML, the extended colors work as the
basic ones and are represented in the same format but with other combinations of
digits and characters.


HEX TRIPLET

For mortals and inexperienced users, all colors have just names and nothing
more. But people who develop and create websites and their pages have extended
knowledge about them.

All color titles possess unique names: not in terms of common denominations but
previously determined digits and three-byte hexadecimal numbers. This
“scary-named” term is represented by the same number of colors, including red,
blue, and green. It is called hex-triplet. Each byte has a range of intensity
from 00 to ff (considering decimal notation – from 0 to 255). And if you apply
elementary math in this case, you will have this formula:





256*256*256=16,777,216



The number in the result indicates that there are over sixteen million colors,
which can be used.


CSS COLORS

Colors are widely used in CSS by the reason to change text colors, background
landscape, shadows, gradients, etc. There are several ways to set colors in CSS.

The color attribute determines the color of the text. It is pretty simple. More
importantly, there are varied patterns of color units available.



CSS offers 145 color names, from the simplest (black, white, red, orange, blue,
and so on) to more specific ones (aquamarine, darkkhaki, orchid, crimson,
indigo, etc.).


COLOR HARMONY

When people talk about color harmony, they rely solely on subjective feelings,
while the concept of color harmony is an objective regularity. Harmony is an
equilibrium, asymmetry of forces. Our vision demand and affect complementary
colors (opposite, complementary), creating this balance. The neutral color is
gray. Our eye does not create any complementary color with it. To create
harmonious combinations, various color order systems have been developed. These
are the color circle and color triangles (image below). The opposite colors in
this circle are complementary.


CONCLUSION

Now you know the basics. Start making your own palettes and patterns, experiment
and practice with colors and paints, and then, you will definitely succeed!

FAQ SECTION

How do I find a color code?

There are over 16 million colors, so it is pretty impossible to memorize all the
codes. And if you need to find the code within a second, you can use our Color
Hex tool.

How many basic HTML colors?

According to the data, the complete list of primary HTML colors only includes
sixteen colors.

What is an RGB palette?

RGB stands for Red, Green, and Blue. These three colors are essential because,
with the help of their shades and tones, there are so many different colors.

How fast can Color Hex identify the needed color?

The Color Hex tool features an extensive base of colors. Thus, this service will
