What is the difference between HEX and RGB?

HEX uses hexadecimal notation (#RRGGBB) while RGB uses decimal values (0-255) for each channel. They represent the same colors, just in different number systems.

Can I convert shorthand HEX codes?

Yes. Shorthand 3-digit codes like #F00 are automatically expanded to their 6-digit form (#FF0000) before conversion.
