About this tool

The Gradient CSS Generator lets you build linear, radial, or conic CSS gradients through a visual editor and outputs ready-to-paste CSS code. It is aimed at front-end developers and designers who want to create smooth colour transitions without writing gradient syntax by hand or second-guessing browser prefixes.

Reach for this tool when you are styling backgrounds, buttons, hero sections, or UI cards and need precise control over colour stops, angles, and gradient types. It saves the trial-and-error of tweaking raw CSS values, especially when working with multi-stop gradients or repeating patterns.

How to use it

  1. Choose your gradient type: linear, radial, or conic from the type selector.
  2. Set the angle or position using the direction control or input field.
  3. Add colour stops by clicking the gradient bar and picking colours with the colour picker.
  4. Drag colour stops along the bar to adjust their position percentages.
  5. Preview the live gradient in the preview pane to confirm it looks right.
  6. Copy the generated CSS code block and paste it directly into your stylesheet.

Pro tips

  • Use percentage values beyond 0 and 100 on colour stops to create hard-edge banding effects without extra markup.
  • Stack multiple backgrounds in CSS by generating two gradients separately and combining them with a comma in the background property.

FAQ

Does the generated CSS work in all modern browsers?
Yes, the output uses the unprefixed standard syntax supported by all modern browsers. If you need legacy support for older WebKit browsers, add the -webkit- prefix manually.
Can I use transparent in my gradient?
Yes, set a colour stop to any colour and reduce its alpha channel to zero in the colour picker. The generator will output rgba or hsla values with full transparency.
