Color Picker
WEBPick colors and convert between HEX, RGB and HSL with a live palette.
What it does
Color Picker gives designers, developers, and anyone working with colour a fast, precise way to choose a hue and instantly see it expressed as HEX, RGB, and HSL values — all at once, all in sync. Adjust the hue, saturation, and lightness sliders and the live preview swatch updates in real time alongside all three code formats. A generated palette strip shows five lightness variants of your chosen colour so you can quickly pick a complementary shade. Tap any value to copy it straight to your clipboard. Everything runs entirely on your device: no image is uploaded, no account is needed, and the tool is completely free. Whether you're building a website palette, matching a brand colour, or just curious what HSL values sit behind a particular orange, Carbide's Color Picker has the answer immediately.
