Light pink color code. Color in styles can be specified in different ways: by hexadecimal value, by name, in RGB, RGBA, HSL, HSLA format
In HTML, color can be specified in three ways:
Setting a color in HTML by its name
Some colors can be specified by their name, using the color name in English as the value. The most common keywords: black, white, red, green, blue, etc.:

Specifying Color Using RGB
When displaying different colors on a monitor, the RGB palette is used as a basis. Any color is obtained by mixing three basic ones: R - red, G - green, B - blue. The brightness of each color is given by one byte and can therefore take values from 0 to 255. For example, RGB(255,0,0) is displayed as red since red is set to its highest value (255) and the rest are set to 0 You can also set the color as a percentage. Each parameter indicates the brightness level of the corresponding color. For example: the values rgb(127, 255, 127) and rgb(50%, 100%, 50%) will set the same medium green color:

rgb(127, 255, 127)
rgb(50%, 100%, 50%)
rgb(127, 255, 127)
rgb(50%, 100%, 50%)
Set color by hexadecimal value
Values R G B can also be specified using hexadecimal (HEX) color values in the form: #RRGGBB where RR (red), GG (green) and BB (blue) are hexadecimal values from 00 to FF (same as decimal 0-255) . The hexadecimal system, unlike the decimal system, is based, as its name suggests, on the number 16. The hexadecimal system uses the following signs: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, A, B, C, D, E, F. Here the numbers from 10 to 15 are replaced by Latin letters. Numbers greater than 15 in the hexadecimal system are represented by combining two characters into one value. For example, the highest number 255 in decimal corresponds to the highest FF value in hexadecimal. Unlike the decimal system, a hexadecimal number is preceded by a hash symbol. # , for example, #FF0000 is shown as red because red is set to its highest value (FF) and the rest of the colors are set to their minimum value (00). Signs after the hash symbol # You can type in both uppercase and lowercase. The hexadecimal system allows you to use the abbreviated form #rgb, where each character is equivalent to double. Thus, the entry #f7O should be regarded as #ff7700.

Color codes (background) by saturation and hue.
Color codes in CSS are used to specify colors. Typically, color codes or color values are used to set the color for either the foreground color of an element (e.g. text color, link color) or the background color of an element (background color, block color). They can also be used to change the color of a button, border, marker, hover, and other decorative effects.
You can specify your color values in various formats. The following table lists all possible formats:
The listed formats are described in more detail below.
CSS Colors - Hex Codes
Hexadecimal color code is a six-digit representation of color. The first two digits (RR) represent the red value, the next two represent the green value (GG), and the last two represent the blue value (BB).
CSS Colors - Short Hex Codes
Short hex color code is a shorter form of six-character notation. In this format, each digit is repeated to produce an equivalent six-digit color value. For example: #0F0 becomes #00FF00.
The hexadecimal value can be taken from any graphics software such as Adobe Photoshop, Core Draw, etc.
Each hexadecimal color code in CSS will be preceded by a hash sign "#". Below are examples of using hexadecimal notations.
CSS Colors - RGB Values
RGB value is a color code that is set using the rgb() property. This property takes three values: one each for red, green, and blue. The value can be an integer, from 0 to 255, or a percentage.
Note: Not all browsers support the rgb() color property, so it is not recommended to use it.
Below is an example showing multiple colors using RGB values.

Browser Safe Colors
Below is a table of 216 colors that are the most secure and computer-independent. These colors in CSS range from 000000 to FFFFFF hexadecimal code. They are safe to use because they ensure that all computers display color correctly when working with the 256 color palette.

Minecraft Codes colors, or Minecraft codes formatting, allow any player to add flowers and format text in every possible way directly in Minecraft. Color codes from &0-9 - to &a-f. Add them before your text. Messages from players can contain color codes that allow you to add color to your sentences.
Colors and formatting codes
The ampersand sign (&) followed by a hexadecimal number in messages signals the client to switch colors when displaying text. Additionally, text can be formatted with an & followed by a letter. You can add different colors to books, command blocks, server name, server description (motd), world names, signs, and even player names.
It's very easy to format your text in configs or in game using the color chart below. &r is used to reset all codes, i.e. &mAAA&rBBB will be displayed as AAA BBB.
