Done with the CSS Gradient Generator? Try this next:
Color Picker →Select linear (straight gradient), radial (circular gradient), or conic (swept gradient) from the type dropdown. Each type creates a different visual effect.
Use the color pickers to choose your gradient colors. Adjust each stop's position (0-100%) to control where colors blend. Add more stops for complex gradients or remove extras.
For linear and conic gradients, use the angle slider (0-360 degrees) to control the gradient direction. 0deg goes upward, 90deg goes right, 180deg goes downward, 270deg goes left.
The CSS code updates in real time below the preview. Click 'Copy CSS' to copy the complete background property to your clipboard, ready to paste into your stylesheet.

</p>CSS supports three gradient types: linear-gradient (colors transition along a straight line), radial-gradient (colors radiate from a center point in a circle or ellipse), and conic-gradient (colors sweep around a center point like a pie chart). All three are supported by this tool.
Set the angle to 45deg for a bottom-left to top-right diagonal, or 135deg for top-left to bottom-right. You can use any angle from 0 to 360 degrees. CSS also supports direction keywords like 'to bottom right' but this tool uses degrees for precision.
Yes, with additional CSS: set background to your gradient, then add background-clip: text and color: transparent. This clips the gradient to the text shape. Example: background: linear-gradient(90deg, #3b82f6, #8b5cf6); -webkit-background-clip: text; color: transparent.
CSS has no practical limit on color stops, but this tool supports up to 6 for usability. In practice, 2-4 stops create the cleanest gradients. More stops are useful for rainbow effects or complex color transitions.
Yes, CSS gradients (linear-gradient, radial-gradient, conic-gradient) are supported by all modern browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and Opera. Conic gradients have slightly less legacy support but work in all browsers released since 2020.
