RGB(A) or HEX, which do you prefer in ex. CSS?

Rgba. Alternately whatever zeplin spits out from our design team.

Heh, I always did mine in hex. I didn't even know rgb and rgba were an option. Most other programs I use have color constants and the standard hex. So I mostly do hex.

Both.

both, but rgba has become somewhat of a preference since partly transparent bg colors seem to be in the liking of our designer.

Why is 8 character hex not a thing? I looked, and it was thought about to be included, but I cannot see if it was ever included in CSS3. Is it included in CSS4?

since there are color pickers in vs code i don't care as long they are consistent organised in a document color library in css variables.
I really hate redundant colors for the same thing just out of lazyness.

HSL

rgba, because its way more semantical

you know what would be cool?
more colors! At least 100% adobe rgb adoption worldwide for all devices.

@heyheni AdobeRGB has the same amount of colours as sRGB

Hex because it's what I'm best at. I used to use hex colors so frequently that I could look at a color and tell you its hex value within a few digits. I wasn't as good with rgb.

If I had to pick one, however, it would be HSL. It's easier in almost every situation, more intuitive (this hue, this amount, this brightness), and I love that it makes keeping the color vibrant (or in a particular shade) so simple. It's as wonderful to use as Ruby.

@Demolishun It is, though?
I'm not sure about support, but I've been using it for awhile now. Stick a #c71585aa on an sticky div somewhere and scroll.

@Ninetou no? 🤨

hex look cleaner

I usually do hex unless I need to make the element transparent

@heyheni You posted a colour gamut chart. Now what does it prove?
Color count of both sRGB and AdobeRGB is 256*256*256=16.7mil

@Demolishun There are 8 character hex values. #RRGGBBAA or #RGBA.
