About OKLCH and HSB / HSV
OKLCH is OKLab in polar form: lightness, chroma and hue. Tailwind CSS v4 uses it for its whole palette because changing lightness keeps the hue stable.
HSV, also called HSB, uses hue, saturation and value. Photoshop, Figma and most color pickers use it for the square picker.
How the conversion works
We read the OKLCH value, convert it to CIE XYZ with the matrices from the CSS Color 4 specification and then into HSB / HSV. Values outside the target gamut are mapped by the CSS Color 4 algorithm, which keeps lightness and hue and reduces chroma.
