Why do designers like HSL?+

HSL separates hue, saturation, and lightness in a way that matches how people tune color — ideal for tints/shades and theme variants.

How is HSL different from HSV?+

Both are hue-based, but lightness models differ: HSL’s L is relative lightness, while HSV’s V tracks maximum channel brightness more closely.
