background: linear-gradient(90deg, #6366f1 0%, #ec4899 100%);About this tool
The CSS Gradient Generator lets you create linear and radial gradients with a live preview, without having to memorize CSS gradient syntax. Choose the gradient type, adjust the angle, add and reorder color stops, and the ready-to-use CSS code appears instantly for you to copy.
To use it, select the gradient type (linear or radial), set the angle for linear gradients, add color stops by clicking "Add" and choosing each color and position. The preview updates in real time as you edit. When you're happy with the result, copy the generated CSS with a single click.
Common use cases include creating section backgrounds for landing pages, gradient buttons, visual headers, banners, and decorative UI elements. Front-end developers and designers use this tool to experiment with color combinations without opening a code editor, then paste the result directly into their project's CSS.

Frequently asked questions
Does the generated gradient work in all modern browsers?
Yes. The generated syntax uses standard 'linear-gradient()' and 'radial-gradient()', supported by all modern browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge). Vendor prefixes for very old browsers are no longer needed in practice.
Is this tool free to use?
Yes, completely free. No usage limits, no signup, no paid plans.
Is my data sent to any server?
No. All processing — color selection, gradient calculation, and CSS generation — happens locally in your browser. No information leaves your device.
Does it work on mobile?
Yes. The tool is responsive and works on smartphones and tablets. The color picker and position controls support touch input.
Can I create gradients with more than two colors?
Yes. You can add as many color stops as you need. Each stop has its own color and percentage position, enabling complex gradients with multiple transitions.
