About the RGB to HSV Converter

HSV — hue, saturation and value, also called HSB for brightness — is the model behind the colour pickers in Photoshop, Figma, Procreate and most programming libraries, because it matches how people think about colour: pick a hue, then decide how vivid and how bright it should be.

Paste an RGB colour in any form — rgb(64, 224, 208), 64 224 208 or a HEX — and the converter gives its hue in degrees and its saturation and value as percentages, with the HSL equivalent alongside so the difference between the two models is clear. Switch direction to type hue, saturation and value and get RGB and HEX back. Every other notation of the colour is listed underneath.
