1
Choose a gradient type
Switch between linear, radial, or conic. For radial gradients you can pick ellipse or circle.
2
Set direction or angle
Use the slider for linear and conic angles. Radial mode hides the angle control and uses the shape option instead.
3
Edit colours and stops
Click a swatch to pick a colour or type a six-digit HEX value. Drag each position slider to place the stop along the gradient.
4
Preview, copy, or reset
The right panel updates live with the CSS snippet. Try a preset for a quick start, or use Reset to return to the default two-colour setup.

Paste the snippet into your background styles. For transparency, edit the copied CSS and swap a colour for a semi-transparent value.

When is this tool most useful?
Typical uses include hero backgrounds, buttons, and cards; soft overlays on photos to improve text contrast; and quickly exploring colour combinations before locking a design.
How do linear, radial, and conic differ?
Linear blends colours along a straight line—great for banners and angled washes. Radial spreads outward from a centre—handy for spotlights and circular buttons. Conic rotates colours around a point—useful for pie-like colour wheels.
Can I fade to transparent?
Yes. Generate the gradient first, copy the CSS, then replace one colour with a semi-transparent value or a supported transparent keyword before pasting into your stylesheet.
Will the CSS work in modern browsers?
Linear and radial gradients are widely supported. Conic gradients are supported in current evergreen browsers; if you must support very old browsers, test a small page before relying on conic.
Do I need exactly two colour stops?
You need at least two colours for a smooth blend. Add extra stops when you want richer transitions—each stop can be moved independently.
What does a preset button change?
A preset applies its colours and angle and switches the type back to linear so you can tweak from a known baseline. Use Reset on the toolbar to restore the default two-colour linear gradient.
