How to Use the Color Picker & Converter

ToolPrime Team 2 min read

Choosing the right colors is essential for web design, branding, and UI development. The ToolPrime Color Picker lets you select colors visually or enter values in HEX, RGB, or HSL format. It instantly converts between all formats and provides a live preview with contrast checking.

1 Open the Color Picker

Go to the Color Picker tool page. A color area and sliders are ready for interaction.

2 Pick a color

Click on the color area to select a color visually, or enter a specific HEX, RGB, or HSL value in the input fields.

3 Copy the color value

Click the copy button next to any format (HEX, RGB, or HSL) to copy it to your clipboard.

4 Check contrast

Use the contrast checker to verify your color meets WCAG accessibility standards against white or black backgrounds.

Common Use Cases

  • Finding the exact HEX code for a brand color
  • Converting between RGB and HSL for CSS styling
  • Checking color contrast for WCAG accessibility compliance
  • Exploring color variations for design mockups

Pro Tips

Use HSL format for easy color manipulation — adjust lightness to create shades and tints.

WCAG AA requires a minimum contrast ratio of 4.5:1 for normal text.

Copy the HEX value for use in CSS, design tools, and brand guidelines.
