Frequently Asked Questions

How do I create a CSS gradient?

Simply choose your gradient type, pick your starting and ending colors using our visual editor, and copy the generated code. You can then paste this code directly into your website's stylesheet.

What is the difference between linear and radial gradients?

A linear gradient progresses colors in a straight line at a specific angle, while a radial gradient radiates outward from a central point. Our tool allows you to easily create and switch between both types.

How do I add a transparent CSS gradient?

To create a transparent gradient, use the 'rgba' or 'hsla' color format and lower the alpha opacity value for your color stops. This will allow the background behind your gradient element to show through.

Can I add more than two colors to my gradient?

Yes, you can add as many colors as you need by clicking directly on the gradient slider bar in the visual editor. You can also drag these stops to adjust exactly where each color transition begins.

Does the generated CSS code work on all browsers?

Yes, our generator outputs modern, standard CSS code that is fully supported by all modern web browsers. For older legacy browsers, you may need to include vendor prefixes like -webkit- manually.
