About the CSS Gradient Generator
This gradient generator creates CSS linear and radial gradients visually. Choose your gradient type, angle, and color stops, then copy the ready-to-use CSS rule. Supports multiple color stops and real-time preview so you can see exactly what the gradient will look like before using it.
Gradients are widely used in modern web design for backgrounds, buttons, hero sections, and overlays on images. This tool saves time by generating the cross-browser CSS syntax automatically — no need to remember the exact gradient syntax or calculate color stop percentages manually.
Frequently asked questions
Linear or radial — when to use which?
Linear gradients create a sense of light direction and are great for backgrounds, headers, and buttons. Radial gradients suggest a focal point or depth, useful for spotlights, vignettes, and decorative elements.
Can I add more than two color stops?
Yes. Multi-stop gradients let you create rainbows, sunsets, and more nuanced transitions. Stops can be placed at any percentage along the gradient line — not just the endpoints.
