Green indicates that a pair of hex digits for a color channel is exactly correct
Yellow indicates that a pair of hex digits for a color channel is one off from exactly correct
Orange indicates that the first hex digit of a pair is exactly correct, but the second is off
Red indicates that the first hex digit of a pair is one off from exactly correct
Purple indicates a single digit exists in the solution (but NOT necessarily in a different position, contrary to what yellow indicates in Wordle)
Gray indicates a hex digit not found in the target color at all
Also (per Nayelianne) using RGB instead of hex would make the game easier for most players

The wording in the instructions is a little confusing though, I feel like it could be adjusted a bit specially for people who might not be super familiar with HEX. I'd probably change "groups" to "pairs" and highlight that each pair refers to R,G, B, for those unfamiliar with the breakdown.
I'd also probably change "quite correct" to simply "correct" (because the "quite" kinda makes it sound like it's not EXACTLY correct) and highlight that it only gets green once you get the PAIR correct, so getting just one character correct and in the right place won't be sufficient.
You kinda get the gist as you play, but if you were to tell me to explain what exactly some of these instructions mean I'd have a hard time. The general color symbology would make you think that yellow means the closest to correct, but "practically the same number as the target group" sounds closer to true than "very very close", so one can get confused as to which is actually closer, and someone playing for the first time someone might not realize when one is specifically referring to individual values, and not the pair. "A little off but still in reach" is also a bit ambiguous, due to the "still in reach".
In any case, it's entertaining once you figure it out.
also btw this site isnt just for incrementals milo
