CSS gradients are one of the most powerful tools in a web designer's arsenal. They add depth, visual interest, and modern aesthetics to backgrounds, buttons, headers, and more — without needing to use image files. A well-crafted gradient can define the entire visual identity of a website.

Gradient Types Supported

  • Linear gradient: Transitions in a straight line at any angle (0°–360°)
  • Radial gradient: Transitions outward from a central point in a circular or elliptical pattern
  • Multi-stop gradients: Add as many colour stops as you need for complex transitions
  • Transparent gradients: Fade from colour to transparent for overlay effects

How to Generate a CSS Gradient — Step by Step

  1. Choose gradient type: Select linear or radial gradient.
  2. Pick colours: Choose start and end colours using the colour picker.
  3. Set angle/position: Adjust the direction (for linear) or centre point (for radial).
  4. Add colour stops: Add intermediate colours for complex gradients.
  5. Copy CSS: Click "Copy CSS" to copy the ready-to-use CSS code.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What is a CSS gradient?

A CSS gradient is a smooth transition between two or more colours defined in code. It's created using CSS's linear-gradient() or radial-gradient() functions and doesn't require any image files.

What is the CSS for a simple blue-to-purple gradient?

background: linear-gradient(135deg, #3B82F6, #8B5CF6); — this creates a diagonal gradient from blue to purple.

Can I create a transparent gradient?

Yes — use rgba() or hsla() colours with alpha set to 0 for full transparency. This is commonly used for overlay effects.

Does the generated CSS work in all browsers?

Yes — CSS gradients are supported in all modern browsers. For very old browser support (IE9 and below), vendor prefixes may be needed.

Is this tool free?

Yes, 100% free with no account required.

Can I create gradients with more than 2 colours?

Yes — add as many colour stops as you want for complex multi-colour transitions.
