CSS Gradient Guide
What Is a CSS Gradient Generator?
A CSS gradient generator is a visual tool that helps designers and developers create smooth transitions between two or more colors. Instead of manually writing gradient syntax, you can configure the appearance visually and copy the generated CSS code.
CSS gradients are commonly used for website backgrounds, hero sections, buttons, cards, overlays, banners, illustrations and interface elements. Because gradients are generated by the browser, they can often be used without separate background image files.
Types of CSS Gradients
CSS supports different gradient functions for different visual effects.
Linear Gradients
A linear gradient transitions colors along a straight line. The direction can be controlled using an angle or directional value.
Radial Gradients
A radial gradient starts from an origin point and expands outward in a circle or ellipse.
Conic Gradients
A conic gradient rotates colors around a center point, making it useful for circular effects and decorative visuals.
What Are CSS Gradient Color Stops?
Color stops define the colors used in a gradient and where each color appears. A simple gradient may contain two colors, while more complex gradients can use three, four or many additional stops.
linear-gradient( 90deg, #2563eb 0%, #7c3aed 50%, #ec4899 100% )
In this example, the blue color begins at 0 percent, violet appears at 50 percent and pink reaches 100 percent. Changing these positions changes how quickly one color transitions into another.
