About Gradient Generator
CSS gradients are one of the most powerful design tools available in modern browsers, and getting the code right used to require memorizing complex syntax. Our free Gradient Generator lets you build stunning linear, radial, and conic gradients visually — add color stops, adjust angles, and pick directions with a clean drag-and-drop interface. Copy the ready-to-use CSS code with one click.
Gradients are everywhere in modern web design — hero section backgrounds, button hover effects, card borders, text color effects, mesh gradients, and full-page atmospheric backdrops. Our tool covers all the standard CSS gradient types: linear-gradient (directional), radial-gradient (circular), and conic-gradient (angular rotation).
You can add unlimited color stops, adjust their positions, change opacity, and preview the result on a live canvas. The generated CSS is clean, standards-compliant, and works in all modern browsers. Advanced users can also toggle vendor prefixes for older browser support and switch between % and px position units.
