CSS Colors & Backgrounds Kya Hote Hain?

CSS mein colors aur backgrounds kaafi important hote hain, jo kisi bhi webpage ke design aur look ko enhance karne mein madad karte hain. Chaliye, inke different aspects ko detail mein samajhte hain.

1. CSS Color Formats :

Webpages par colors define karne ke liye CSS mein different formats ka use hota hai. Ye formats humein precise colors choose karne ki flexibility dete hain.

A. RGB (Red, Green, Blue):

RGB color format 3 primary colors (Red, Green, Blue) ka combination hota hai. Har color ki intensity 0 se 255 tak ho sakti hai.

color: rgb(255, 0, 0);  /* Red color */
color: rgb(0, 255, 0);  /* Green color */
color: rgb(0, 0, 255);  /* Blue color */
color: rgb(255, 255, 0);  /* Yellow color */

• rgb(255, 0, 0) → Red ka full intensity (255), Green aur Blue ki intensity zero, toh color pure red hoga.
• rgb(0, 255, 0) → Green full, baaki zero, toh color pure green.
• rgb(0, 0, 255) → Blue full, baaki zero, toh color pure blue.

B. HEX (Hexadecimal):

Hexadecimal format color ko 6-digit code ke form mein define karta hai, jo ki RGB ka short form hota hai.

color: #ff0000;  /* Red */
color: #00ff00;  /* Green */
color: #0000ff;  /* Blue */
color: #ffff00;  /* Yellow */
color: #000000;  /* Black */
color: #ffffff;  /* White */

• #ff0000 → ff (255) Red, 00 (0) Green, 00 (0) Blue = Red color
• #00ff00 → 00 Red, ff Green, 00 Blue = Green color
• #0000ff → 00 Red, 00 Green, ff Blue = Blue color

C. HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness):

HSL format colors ko human perception ke according define karta hai.

color: hsl(0, 100%, 50%);  /* Red */
color: hsl(120, 100%, 50%);  /* Green */
color: hsl(240, 100%, 50%);  /* Blue */
color: hsl(60, 100%, 50%);  /* Yellow */

• Hue (0 – 360°) → Color ka type (0 = Red, 120 = Green, 240 = Blue)
• Saturation (0% – 100%) → Kitna vibrant color dikhai dega (0% = Grey, 100% = Pure color)
• Lightness (0% – 100%) → Brightness (0% = Black, 50% = Normal, 100% = White)

D. HSLA & RGBA (Alpha Transparency):

Alpha value ek extra parameter hota hai jo transparency define karta hai.

RGBA Syntax:

color: rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.5);  /* 50% transparent red */
color: rgba(0, 255, 0, 0.3);  /* 30% transparent green */

HSLA Syntax:

color: hsla(240, 100%, 50%, 0.5);  /* 50% transparent blue */

• Alpha value (0 – 1) → 0 (completely transparent), 1 (fully opaque)

2. CSS Background Properties:

Background properties se hum kisi element ke background ka color, image, position, repeat, size aur attachment set kar sakte hain. Ye properties hume background ko customize karne ki flexibility deti hain, jisse hum apne webpage ka design aur attractive bana sakte hain. Hum background color ka use karke kisi bhi element ke piche ek solid color de sakte hain, jabki background image ka use karke ek specific image add ki ja sakti hai. Background position se hum image ko apne desired location par set kar sakte hain, aur background repeat property se control kar sakte hain ki image repeat hogi ya nahi. Background size se image ka size adjust kiya ja sakta hai, aur background attachment property se hum define kar sakte hain ki background image scroll hogi ya fixed rahegi.

A. Background-color :

background-color” ek CSS property hai jo kisi element ke background ka color set karne ke liye use hoti hai. Isme aap color names, HEX, RGB ya HSL values specify kar sakte hain.

B. Background-image :

background-image CSS property ek powerful tool hai jo kisi element ke background mein ek image set karne ke liye use hota hai.
