How to Use HTML Color Names

HTML color names work similarly to Hex color codes. You can use them inline with HTML styles or define them in a separate CSS stylesheet for better organization and reusability.

How to Use the HTML Color Names Tool

Understand HTML Color Names: HTML provides a predefined list of color names that represent specific colors. These names are mapped to corresponding HEX and RGB values, allowing you to use them interchangeably in your web designs. Examples include Red, Blue, LightGray, and GoldenRod.

Using Color Names in HTML:
- Inline Styles: Use HTML color names directly within an element's style attribute.
```
<p style="color: Blue;">This text is blue.</p>
```
- CSS Stylesheet: Define your color schemes using these names in a separate CSS file for better organization and reusability.
```
h1 {
    color: DarkCyan;
}
<h1>This heading uses DarkCyan.</h1>
                                
```
Access HEX and RGB Codes: Browse the list of HTML color names to find the exact HEX and RGB values associated with each color. These codes offer more flexibility when color names don't suffice for your design requirements.

Combine with Gradients or Effects: Use these predefined colors as starting points for gradients or other visual effects. For example:
```
background: linear-gradient(to right, Red, Orange);
                        
```
Why Choose HTML Color Names?
- Simplicity: Easier to remember than HEX or RGB codes.
- Compatibility: Supported by all modern browsers.
- Efficiency: Ideal for quick prototyping or when working with standard colors.

With this tool, you can easily select HTML color names, copy their HEX or RGB values, and incorporate them into your projects for seamless integration.
