Colours can be defined using the text equivalent example: “blue” “red” “DarkSalmon” “SpringGreen” and so on. CSS colours can also be defined using a hexadecimal code; the hexadecimal code should always begin with the hash (#) symbol, followed by 6 characters made of both letters and numbers.
When designing a web page you will often need to apply a specific colour for an HTML element, you may be looking to define a white background, with grey font with a separate colour for your border. Although we can define a colour by its name or by its RGB colour code, hexadecimal offers many more colours and shades to choose from.
