Parameter	Type	Description
`hex`	`string`	The hex color string to parse

RgbColor | null — The parsed color, or null if hex is not a valid hex color

The leading # is optional; shorthand 3/4-digit forms are also supported.

hexToRgb('#ff0000')
// => { r: 255, g: 0, b: 0, a: 1 }

Lets you branch on parse failure instead of getting a garbage color.

hexToRgb('not-a-color')
// => null
