About Hue Shifting

The Hue Shifter rotates a color's hue around the color wheel while keeping its saturation and lightness intact. Use it to discover analogous, triadic, complementary, and split-complementary color combinations.

Processing is entirely client-side — your color data stays in your browser.

How to Use

1. Enter a HEX color code or choose one from the color picker.
2. Drag the hue slider or type a degree value (−180° to +180°).
3. View the shifted color alongside the original for comparison.
4. Copy the resulting HEX code or note the RGB and HSL values.
