Would you make the switch to the HSL color format now?
It's probably more human friendly, but I just see it as a storage format. I rarely try to decipher RGB color codes by hand, the IDE shows me the color automatically.
I can image that people who type color codes by hand would prefer HSL though. Do graphics designers do that? I imagine HSL is much easier if you like to do it by hand.
To me, it's like how big endian makes more sense than little endian, but I don't care that most systems use little endian, because I'm not in the habit of reading streams of bytes...
Very well written, Bhanu Teja Pachipulusu.
We'll plan on using HSL format on Hashnode's colour band soon. π

Really nice article! Just a small "bug":
You say "For example, the purest form of red, green, and blue colors is as follows." but your blue is purple
