Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between linear and radial gradients?
Linear gradients transition colors along a straight line; radial gradients radiate from a point outwards in a circle or ellipse.
Can I create a conic gradient?
This tool focuses on linear and radial — conic gradients are supported in modern browsers but use a different syntax.
How do I add more color stops?
Click anywhere on the gradient bar to insert a new stop, then drag it to position and pick its color.
Are the gradients accessible?
Use sufficient contrast between the background gradient and any text placed on top; this tool shows a contrast preview.
Will the CSS work in old browsers?
All modern browsers support unprefixed gradient syntax. Old IE versions need prefixes which you should add manually if you must support them.
