What is a Hex Color Code?

Hexadecimal color codes are six-digit codes representing colors in web design and digital graphics. Each code starts with a hash (#) followed by three pairs of hexadecimal values (0-9, A-F) representing red, green, and blue components. For example, #FF5733 represents a reddish-orange color.
