HSL

HSL is composed of three values:

  • Hue: An angle that ranges between 0deg to 360deg. At 0deg, it’s red and at 360deg it’s red again, but it went through every possible color of the rainbow. We can actually go beyond 360deg and it’ll keep looping through all the colors.
  • Saturation: An amount of color saturation that goes from 0% to 100%. When it’s 0% there is no color and we get only gray. When it’s 100%, it’s saturated and we get vivid colors.
  • Lightness: An amount of lightness that goes from 0% to 100%. When it’s 0%, it’s black. When it’s 100%, it’s white. And when it’s 50%, we get the non-altered color.
