CMYK to HSLA Converter

What is CMYK Color Code

Colors in CMYK are a mix of CYAN, MAGENTA, YELLOW, and BLACK. Printers frequently use CMYK color values to display colors. RGB color values are used to display colors on computer screens. The CMYK model partially or completely masks colors on a lighter, usually white, background. The ink absorbs light that would otherwise be reflected.

What is HSLA Color Code

HSLA is an abbreviation for hue, saturation, lightness, and alpha. HSLA color values are an extension of HSL color values that include an alpha channel that indicates a color's opacity. It is built around the RGB color wheel. Each color has an angle as well as a percentage number for saturation and brightness. Hue is a color wheel degree ranging from 0 to 360, where 0 indicates red, 120 green, and 240 blue. Saturation is given as a percentage, with 0 indicating no color and 100 signifying full color. Lightness is commonly expressed as a percentage, with 0% being black and 100% being white. The alpha parameter has a value range from 0 to 1, where 0 indicates entirely transparent and 1 signifies no transparency at all.
