- Use analogous colors (nearby on the color wheel) for smooth, pleasing gradients.
- Add a transparent color stop to create a fade-out effect on one side.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between a linear and radial gradient?
A linear gradient transitions colors along a straight line at a chosen angle, while a radial gradient radiates colors outward from a center point in a circular or elliptical pattern.
How do I add more than two colors to my gradient?
Click anywhere on the gradient bar to add a new color stop, then click it to assign a color and drag it to adjust its position in the sequence.
Can I control the exact angle of a linear gradient?
Yes. Use the angle control to set any direction in degrees, from a straight top-to-bottom gradient (180deg) to any custom diagonal.
How do I copy the generated CSS into my project?
Click the copy button next to the CSS code output — it copies the full background: linear-gradient(...) or radial-gradient(...) declaration ready to paste into your stylesheet.
Does this tool store or upload the gradients I create?
No. Everything is generated and rendered locally in your browser — no gradient data is saved or sent to a server.
