๐ŸŽจ Built a HEX to RGB Color Converter That Actually Helps Designers Think in Code

Hey devs, designers, and pixel perfectionists! ๐Ÿ‘‹

Ever found yourself eyeballing a HEX color like #FF5733 and wondering what it looks like in RGB? Or maybe youโ€™re tweaking CSS values and switching back and forth between formats?

Well, Iโ€™ve been there too. Thatโ€™s exactly why I built this:
๐Ÿ‘‰ HEX to RGB Color Converter โ€” TrixaHub.com

๐Ÿ”ง Why I Created It

There are a lot of color converters out there, but most of them are either:

Bloated with ads

Lacking live preview

Donโ€™t support shorthand or 8-digit HEX

Just plain ugly to use ๐Ÿ˜…

So, I decided to build something better โ€” a fast, clean, and useful tool that converts **HEX โ‡„ RGB **in real-time with live color preview.

โœจ Key Features

โœ… **Convert HEX to RGB and back instantly
โœ… Supports both shorthand HEX (#f80) and 8-digit HEX with alpha (#ff573380)
โœ… Live color preview so you see exactly what you're working with
โœ… Copy buttons for quick use in your design or code
โœ… Swap feature to instantly flip formats
โœ… Save favorite colors to a color palette builder
โœ… Export your palette as .txt or .json

And yes โ€” no login, no paywall, no ads. Just simple utility.**

๐Ÿ” Use Case: For Designers and Developers Alike

Whether you're working on:

๐ŸŽฏ Web Design: Want your Figma design to match your CSS?
๐Ÿ“ฑ Mobile Apps: Converting HEX to use in RGBA format
๐Ÿ“Š Data Visualization: Managing consistent color schemes in charts
๐Ÿงช *Testing UI contrast and visibility
*

This tool lets you copy-paste, preview, and experiment without friction.
