Frequently Asked Questions
What is a CSS gradient?
A CSS gradient is a smooth transition between two or more colors. It can be used as a background image for any HTML element, creating visual depth and interest without loading external images.
What's the difference between linear and radial gradients?
Linear gradients transition colors along a straight line at any angle. Radial gradients transition colors from a center point outward in a circular or elliptical pattern.
Can I use these gradients in all browsers?
Yes, CSS gradients are supported in all modern browsers including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and Opera. They've been widely supported since 2012.
How do I add more than two colors?
You can add up to 5 color stops using our generator. Each stop can be positioned at any percentage along the gradient to create complex color transitions.
