Color Toolbox

Usage Guide

The color toolbox converts between HEX, RGB, HSL, and related formats, and checks contrast between foreground and background colors. Enter or pick a color to copy values for CSS, design files, and component themes. Contrast checks follow WCAG-style thresholds and help you judge whether body text, large text, and important buttons are readable enough. Do not rely only on visual instinct: light text on bright backgrounds, muted text on dark cards, and brand-color buttons with white labels can all become difficult to read on real devices.

Examples

• Convert a HEX value from a design file into RGB or HSL for CSS variables.
• Check whether button text meets AA contrast before deciding to darken the background color.
• Preview secondary text, borders, and status colors while tuning a dark theme.

FAQ

• Should I target AA or AAA? AA is a practical baseline for most products; AAA is stricter and useful for reading-heavy experiences.
• What if a brand color fails? Adjust lightness, change text color, add supporting treatment, or use clearer states.
• Does passing contrast guarantee good design? No. It addresses readability, but hierarchy, size, and spacing still matter.
