What is a CSS Gradient?

A CSS gradient is a smooth transition between two or more colors. Gradients are commonly used in web design to create visually appealing backgrounds, buttons, and UI elements without using images. CSS gradients are generated by the browser, making them lightweight and scalable.

Types of CSS Gradients

  • Linear Gradient: Colors transition along a straight line at a specified angle
  • Radial Gradient: Colors radiate outward from a center point
  • Conic Gradient: Colors rotate around a center point like a pie chart

  2. Choose your colors using the color picker
  3. Adjust the angle (for linear) or position (for radial/conic)
  4. Add or remove color stops as needed
  5. Copy the generated CSS code and paste it in your stylesheet
