What is the difference between linear and radial gradients?

A linear gradient blends colors along a straight line in a chosen direction; a radial gradient blends colors outward from a center point.

Can I use more than two colors?

This tool generates a two-color gradient; more color stops would need to be added manually to the generated CSS.

Is my color data sent anywhere?

No — the gradient is generated and previewed entirely in your browser.

Does the generated CSS work in all browsers?

Linear and radial gradients are supported in all modern browsers.

Can I paste the CSS directly into a stylesheet?

Yes — the copied text is a complete, valid CSS background declaration.

Why does my direction dropdown not do anything on a radial gradient?

Direction only applies to linear gradients — radial gradients always radiate from the center by design.

What Is a CSS Gradient Generator?

A CSS gradient blends two (or more) colors smoothly across an element's background, either in a straight line (linear) or radiating outward from a center point (radial). Writing the exact CSS syntax by hand — especially getting the direction right — is fiddly to do from memory.

This tool lets you pick a start color, an end color, a gradient type and a direction, shows you a live visual preview, and gives you the exact CSS background declaration ready to paste into your stylesheet.

Use Subtle Gradients for Backgrounds

Close, muted colors tend to work better for large background areas than high-contrast pairs.

Radial Gradients Ignore Direction

The direction setting only applies to linear gradients; radial gradients radiate from the center regardless.
