Android XML to RGBA examples
About Android XML and RGBA
Android XML resources write colors as #RRGGBB or #AARRGGBB with the alpha first, like #80FF5733 for 50% opacity. This ARGB order differs from CSS, where alpha comes last.
RGBA is RGB plus an alpha channel for opacity, written as rgba(255, 87, 51, 0.5). Alpha goes from 0 (fully transparent) to 1 (fully opaque). The same opacity can be written as 8-digit HEX, like #ff573380.
How the conversion works
We read the Android XML value, convert it to CIE XYZ with the matrices from the CSS Color 4 specification and then into RGBA. Values outside the target gamut are mapped by the CSS Color 4 algorithm, which keeps lightness and hue and reduces chroma.
