Common input mistakes (and fixes)

Why an HSL round trip can shift by one

This tool rounds HSL values to whole numbers, so converting away and back can drift slightly. Example: #f97316 becomes hsl(25, 95%, 53%), and converting that back gives rgb(249, 116, 21) — one step off on two channels. That is rounding, not a bug: whole-number HSL offers roughly 3.7 million combinations, while RGB has 16,777,216, so some colors simply have no exact HSL match. Treat the 6-digit HEX as the exact value and HSL as a close, editable approximation.
