Step-by-step math

Every number below is computed from the input, nothing is looked up.

  1. 1. input

    oklch(0.21033 0.00586 285.885)
  2. 2. OKLCH → Oklab

    a = C·cos H = 0.00160
    b = C·sin H = -0.00564
  3. 3. Oklab → LMS′

    l′ = L + 0.3963·a + 0.2158·b = 0.209749
    m′ = L − 0.1056·a − 0.0639·b = 0.210521
    s′ = L − 0.0895·a − 1.2915·b = 0.217466
  4. 4. cube

    l = 0.209749³ = 0.009228
    m = 0.210521³ = 0.009330
    s = 0.217466³ = 0.010284
  5. 5. LMS → linear sRGB

    R = 4.0767·l − 3.3077·m + 0.2310·s = 0.009134
    G = −1.2684·l + 2.6098·m − 0.3413·s = 0.009134
    B = −0.0042·l − 0.7034·m + 1.7076·s = 0.010960
  6. 6. linear → sRGB, × 255

    R = 0.09412 × 255 = 24.00 → 24
    G = 0.09412 × 255 = 24.00 → 24
    B = 0.10588 × 255 = 27.00 → 27
  7. 7. RGB → HEX
