Hex to RGB Converter
Paste a hex code like #1A73E8 and get its RGB equivalent (26, 115, 232) instantly โ or paste RGB values and get the hex. A live swatch shows the actual color, so you can confirm you have the right shade before it goes into CSS, Figma or a brand guide.
Both notations describe the same color: hex is just RGB written in base 16 (1A hex = 26). The converter accepts 3-digit shorthand too (#F00 = #FF0000) and outputs the 6-digit canonical form.
How to use
- Type a hex code (with or without the #) โ RGB values and the color swatch appear instantly.
- Or type R, G, B numbers (0โ255) to get the hex code.
- Copy either format straight into CSS, design tools or documentation.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert HEX to RGB?
Split the hex code into three pairs and convert each from base 16 to base 10. #1A73E8: 1A = 26, 73 = 115, E8 = 232 โ so RGB(26, 115, 232). The converter does both pairs live.
What is the difference between HEX and RGB?
None in color โ they are two notations for the same values. HEX is compact and universal in design handoffs; RGB(A) supports alpha transparency and reads more explicitly in CSS.
What are 3-digit hex codes?
Shorthand where each digit is doubled: #F00 expands to #FF0000 (red). It exists for brevity; the converter accepts it and outputs the full 6-digit form.
What is RGBA?
RGB plus an alpha channel for opacity (0โ1). This converter handles opaque colors; add the alpha in CSS separately, e.g. rgba(26, 115, 232, 0.5).
