CSS Gradient Generator
Design a linear CSS gradient visually and copy the code.
Gradients turn flat backgrounds into something with depth, and CSS's linear-gradient() makes them lightweight and resolution-independent — no image needed. But hand-writing the syntax, guessing the angle, and iterating on color stops is slow when you can't see the result.
This generator gives you a live preview: pick a start and end color, drag the angle, and copy the exact linear-gradient() CSS. Use it for hero sections, buttons, cards, or as a base you refine further in your stylesheet.

Frequently asked questions
Common mistakes to avoid
- Choosing two colors with similar lightness — the gradient looks flat; vary lightness for visible depth.
- Forgetting fallbacks for very old browsers; a solid background-color before the gradient line covers them.
