CSS Gradient Generator

CSS gradient generator

CSS gradients create smooth color transitions without image assets. This generator produces standard linear-gradient() and radial-gradient() declarations that work in modern browsers and can be pasted directly into a stylesheet.

Linear and radial gradients

Linear gradients travel along an angle from one edge to another. Radial gradients radiate from a center point and are useful for highlights, badges, and backgrounds. Add up to eight stops and place each stop from 0% to 100%.

Type	CSS function	Typical use
Linear	linear-gradient()	Hero backgrounds and banners
Radial	radial-gradient()	Glows, focus rings, and cards

.hero {
  background: linear-gradient(135deg, #6366f1 0%, #ec4899 100%);
}

Practical workflow

Choose a type, set an angle for linear gradients, tune each color and position, then copy the generated declaration. Stops are sorted by position before CSS is produced, so they can be edited in any order.

<div class="hero">Readable text needs sufficient contrast.</div>

Check text contrast after selecting vivid colors. Gradients are decorative; keep important content accessible with a solid fallback color.
