What is HSL to HSLA Converter?

Convert HSL color values to HSLA format to add alpha transparency control while maintaining the HSL color model. While HSL format hsl(9, 100%, 65%) represents solid colors, HSLA format hsla(9, 100%, 65%, 0.8) adds an alpha channel for transparency. This is ideal when you need to add opacity to theme colors without switching to RGB-based formats.
