HEX CODE! The reason why we want hex codes is:

1. Hex codes will only work in code you can't just type green or yellow (correct me if I'm wrong)

2.  There are multiple shades of all colors so hex codes are the most specific you can get.

A linear gradient is just a fancy way of saying a string of colors but, the colors can't be changing. (e.g. animations) If you didn't know what hex codes are, they are numbers and letters with a '#' in the front that gives you a specific color.
