This Color Gradient Generator helps you create beautiful linear and radial gradients with real-time preview. CSS gradients are powerful background properties that allow you to create smooth color transitions without using images.
How to Use This Tool:
- Choose Gradient Type: Select between linear gradients (straight line transitions) and radial gradients (circular transitions).
- Adjust Angle: For linear gradients, set the direction using the angle control (0° to 360°).
- Add Color Stops: Click "Add Color Stop" to include more colors in your gradient transition.
- Customize Colors: Use the color pickers to select exact colors and adjust their positions with sliders.
- Copy Generated CSS: Click "Copy CSS" to get the ready-to-use CSS code for your project.
Creative Gradient Uses:
- Backgrounds: Create eye-catching page or section backgrounds with smooth color transitions
- Buttons: Add depth and visual interest to UI elements with subtle gradients
- Hero Sections: Design modern landing pages with bold gradient backgrounds
- Text Effects: Apply gradients to text for modern typography treatments
- Overlays: Use semi-transparent gradients to enhance images and create focus areas
Pro Tip: For better performance and compatibility, limit your gradients to 3-4 color stops. Complex gradients with many stops can impact rendering performance, especially on mobile devices. Always test your gradients across different browsers and devices.
