Is there some reference as to what these numbers exactly signify in ConEmu color setting

I realize that 0. is the background and figured out some of the others by playing around with the colors. But looking online for some interesting color schemes, I see other color settings using a Base16 set up that have other identifiers like 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 0A 0B 0C 0D 0E 0F Is there a reference guide for matching the two different identifiers?

ConEmu colors exactly match to Windows real console color indexes.

Windows RealConsole palette

As you can see, they match (by order) lower box of any ConEmu palette (if Extend foreground colors is not used).

ConEmu palette

But ANSI X3.64 color indexes are different. That's why in the upper box of ConEmu palette some cells has two 0-based indexes. 1/4 means 1-st color from Windows palette and 4-th color from ANSI palette.

At last, ANSI palette defines only 8 colors instead of 16 as in Windows. However ANSI defines two codes for background/foreground intensity to be able address indexes 8-15 from Windows palette.

PS. As for 0F read about hex numbers.
