How to Use CSS Gradient Generator

  1. 1

    Choose gradient type

    Select from linear (left to right, top to bottom, at any angle) or radial (circle expanding from center, or ellipse). Radial gradients work well for spotlight effects.

  2. 2

    Pick colors and stops

    Add color stops along the gradient. Each stop has a color and a position percentage (0-100%). Adjust the slider to see real-time preview. More stops = smoother transitions.

  3. 3

    Fine-tune the angle

    For linear gradients, adjust the angle (0-360°). For radial, position the center point and adjust the size. The live preview updates instantly as you change values.

  4. 4

    Copy CSS code

    The tool generates cross-browser compatible CSS. Copy the output for background-image, or use it as a background-color fallback. Includes vendor prefixes (-webkit-, -moz-) for older browsers.
