✨ al_color_rgb_to_html(3) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Allegro 5 API corner of the manual 💅 this one lives in the Library Functions Manual and it's genuinely so cute and simple, no cap 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro5/allegro_color.h>

void al_color_rgb_to_html(float red, float green, float blue,
    char *string)

like, that's the whole vibe. four args, one function, zero drama 🦋

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so what this icon does 👑 is create an HTML-style string representation of an ALLEGRO_COLOR(3), like #00faff. it's giving "I have a color, now give me the hex string" and honestly? obsessed 🔥

🫶 Parameters

• red, green, blue — the color components, and they're in the range 0..1 (yes, floats, not 0..255, don't come for me 💀)
• string — a pointer to a buffer of at least 8 bytes, and that's where the result gets written (including the NUL terminator, so yes, the 8th byte is doing important work 🙈)

lowkey important: that buffer needs to be at least 8 bytes fr fr. don't be out here passing a tiny little buffer, the NUL terminator needs its seat at the table 💅

✨ Example

char html[8];
al_color_rgb_to_html(1, 0, 0, html);

and now html will contain “#ff0000” 💖✨ red slayed, periodt.
