About Gradient Generator
Hand-rolling gradient CSS means counting commas, guessing angles, and reloading the page on every tweak. This tool gives you live preview, drag-friendly inputs, and copy-paste output.
Linear gradients are the daily-driver. Radial and conic have specific use cases — spotlight effects, pie-chart-style backgrounds, hero illustrations. All three render natively in every modern browser, no library needed.

Frequently asked
Does it support more than two colors?
Yes. Add up to six color stops, each with its own hex value and position percent.
Can I copy a Tailwind class?
Linear gradients export a Tailwind arbitrary-value class with from/to colors. Radial and conic don't have a native Tailwind utility — use the raw CSS instead.
Where are presets from?
Six hand-picked starting points: Sunset, Aurora, Citrus, Ocean, Mint, Mono. Tweak any of them by editing the stops.
Is this private?
Yes. Everything renders in your browser via standard CSS. No values are sent to a server.
