CSS Gradient Generator

Create beautiful linear CSS gradients, preview them live, and copy the ready-to-use code.

What is CSS Gradient Generator?

CSS Gradient Generator is a visual tool for building linear CSS gradients without writing code by hand. You pick a start color, an end color, and an angle, watch the result update live in a preview panel, then copy a ready-to-paste background declaration. It is ideal for web developers and designers who want quick, reusable gradient backgrounds.

How to use CSS Gradient Generator

Click the Start color swatch to choose your first color, then the End swatch to choose your second.
Drag the Angle slider between 0 and 360 degrees to set the direction of the fade.
Watch the preview panel at the top update in real time as you adjust the colors and angle.
Read the generated CSS in the code box, which shows a background: linear-gradient(...) declaration.
Click Copy CSS to copy the declaration, or Random to try a random color pair.

Tips

Set the angle to 90° for a left-to-right fade, 180° for a top-to-bottom fade, and 0° for a fade that points upward.
Click Random for inspiration, then fine-tune the pair it picks by editing the swatches.
Choose two colors with enough contrast if text will sit directly on the gradient.
Paste the copied declaration into any CSS rule that accepts a background value.

FAQ

What code does the tool produce?

It outputs a single background declaration in the form background: linear-gradient(angle, start color, end color);, ready to paste into your stylesheet.

Does it support more than two colors?

This generator works with two color stops. If you need extra stops, copy the line and add more colors inside the parentheses.

Is the preview the same as the final result?

Yes. The preview panel is rendered with the exact linear-gradient value shown in the code box, so what you see is what your CSS produces.
