16 dye, firework and sheep colors
Minecraft Dye Colors
Minecraft has two sets of sixteen colors and they are not the same sixteen. The chat codes are what a server MOTD uses; these are what wool, concrete, terracotta, beds and banners actually render as. Not one hex value appears in both tables, which is why copying a chat color into a build plan gives the wrong block every time.

Worth knowing
One dye produces three different colors depending on what it goes into. The Color column is the dye item and the blocks it dyes, Firework is what a firework star renders, and Sheep is the wool a dyed sheep grows in Java Edition. Bedrock differs on white alone, where the dye is #F0F0F0 rather than #F9FFFE.
