Much easier to adjust colours by feel: increase lightness to tint, decrease to shade, rotate hue to change the colour family.Use HEX for design handoff and static stylesheets. Use RGB when you need to manipulate colour values in JavaScript. Use HSL when building dynamic colour systems (dark mode, tints, shades) — the lightness axis maps directly to human perception of brightness, making it much easier to generate accessible colour palettes programmatically.
