CSS Gradient Generator
The CSS Gradient Generator is a free online visual tool that lets you design beautiful linear and radial gradient backgrounds in real time. Add color stops, adjust positions and angles, choose between linear and radial modes, and see the gradient rendered live on a preview element. When you are satisfied with your design, copy the generated CSS code and paste it directly into your stylesheet — no design software or manual coding required.The generator supports linear gradients (with customizable angle from 0° to 360°) and radial gradients (with center position, shape, and extent controls). Add up to 10 color stops, each with independent position and opacity controls. The tool generates standard CSS and includes vendor prefixes (-webkit-, -moz-) for maximum browser compatibility. You can also import an existing CSS gradient declaration to edit it visually, making it easy to refine gradients from existing codebases.Web designers use this tool to create eye-catching hero sections, button backgrounds, overlay effects, and decorative dividers. UI developers generate gradient tokens for design systems. Email designers create gradient backgrounds compatible with email clients. Marketing teams design banner backgrounds and social media visual elements. The visual approach with live preview makes it dramatically faster than hand-coding gradient CSS, especially for complex multi-stop gradients with specific color transitions.CSS Gradient Generator is part of the facilita.tools suite of free web design and development utilities. Available in Portuguese, English, and Spanish, optimized for desktop and mobile browsers.

                    What is a CSS gradient?
                    
                
                

                    
A CSS gradient is a smooth transition between two or more colors created entirely with CSS code, without images. Types include linear (straight line), radial (from center outward), and conic (around a center point). They are lightweight and scale perfectly.

                

            

            

                
                    How do I add a gradient background in CSS?
                    
                
                

                    
Use the background property: background: linear-gradient(90deg, #ff0000, #0000ff); This creates a horizontal gradient from red to blue. You can add more color stops and adjust the angle (0deg=top, 90deg=right, 180deg=bottom).

                

            

            

                
                    What is the difference between linear and radial gradients?
                    
                
                

                    
Linear gradients transition colors along a straight line (e.g., left to right). Radial gradients radiate from a central point outward in a circle or ellipse. Linear is more common for backgrounds; radial is used for spotlight or button effects.
