About CSS Gradients

CSS gradients let you display smooth transitions between two or more colors. They're defined as background-image values:

  • Linear: Colors transition along a straight line (angle-based)
  • Radial: Colors radiate from a center point (circular/elliptical)
  • Conic: Colors rotate around a center point (pie-chart style)

Copy the generated CSS and paste it directly into your stylesheet.
