About the Gradient Generator

Pick your colours, drag the angle, and copy the CSS. The preview fills a large area so you see the gradient the way it will actually appear as a page or hero background, rather than in a thumbnail.

Both linear and radial gradients are supported, with control over the angle and as many colour stops as you need. A randomise button is there for when you want a starting point rather than a blank canvas. The generated CSS is a single standard background-image declaration — no vendor prefixes, because no browser in use still needs them.

Key features of the Gradient Generator

Linear and radial

Both gradient types are supported, with full control over the angle for linear gradients.

As many colour stops as you need

Add stops beyond the usual two when a gradient needs a midpoint to look right.

Full-size preview

The gradient is previewed across a large area, which is the only way to judge how it will read as a background.

Randomise for a starting point

One click generates a fresh combination when you want somewhere to begin rather than a blank canvas.

Clean, modern CSS

The output is a single standard background-image declaration with no vendor prefixes, because no browser in use still needs them.

Frequently asked questions

The angle points in the direction the gradient travels toward. 0deg runs bottom to top, 90deg runs left to right, and 180deg runs top to bottom.
