PostCSS Color Functional Notation lets you use space and slash separated color notation in CSS, following the CSS Color specification.

:root {
  --firebrick: rgb(178 34 34);
  --firebrick-a50: rgb(70% 13.5% 13.5% / 50%);
  --firebrick-hsl: hsla(0 68% 42%);
  --firebrick-hsl-a50: hsl(0 68% 42% / 50%);
}

/* becomes */

  --firebrick-a50: rgba(178, 34, 34, .5);
