> (first contribution, hi! and apologies for any conventions I'm breaking). Design / dev tool author here. I favour (1) for the same reasons as @tabatkins and @LeaVerou Lea (0-255 is legacy, 0-1 is computationally simpler). Hi @maltenuhn! Welcome! 👋🏼 > > Some additional data points / perspectives: > > * from user interviews we know that for many developers / designers, rgb `0-255` often results in mental estimations such as "how far along the scale from from eg "no red" to "red" do I want to be. (That's not to say there isn't a lot of muscle memory here) That's fascinating. Do you have a source for these user interviews? I would love to read more about this study! > * Additionally: Safari (proprietarily) _already_ exposes the P3 colour space with `0-1` for rgb. I wrote something up [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/webdev/comments/ctiixa/widegamut_color_on_the_web_the_status_in_august/) a year ago that has some details. (update: the official webkit [docs](https://webkit.org/blog/10042/wide-gamut-color-in-css-with-display-p3/) ) Not proprietary, but perfectly valid [CSS Color 4](https://www.w3.org/TR/css-color-4/#predefined) syntax! Unfortunately, they only implemented part of it, no other spaces besides P3, and no actual `<percentage>` values. -- GitHub Notification of comment by LeaVerou Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/css-houdini-drafts/issues/1014#issuecomment-744695699 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
