About CSS Gradient Builder.
Build CSS Gradients Visually — Linear, Radial, and Conic
Pick the gradient type, drag color stops, set the angle (linear) or center (radial), and watch the live preview. The generated CSS — and the Tailwind arbitrary-value form — both stay in sync so you can copy whichever your project uses.
Multi-Stop Gradients Done Right
Real gradients rarely use two evenly-spaced colors. The stop list lets you add as many stops as you need, set each one's color and percentage position, and reorder them with a click. Drag a stop's position from 0% to 100% along the bar to adjust the falloff curve.
Linear, Radial, and Conic in One Tool
Linear gradients control direction with an angle (0–360°). Radial gradients radiate from a center point — pick the shape (circle / ellipse) and where the center sits inside the box. Conic gradients sweep colors around a center, which is how you build pie-chart looks and color wheels purely in CSS.
Built-In + Custom Presets
Ship-with presets give you popular looks (sunset, ocean, midnight, mesh-style backgrounds). You can save your own gradients to a cf_gradient_presets cookie so they're back on your next visit. The cookie stays on this device — nothing is sent anywhere.
Privacy and Performance
The whole tool runs in your browser. Color math, preset storage, copy-to-clipboard — all client-side. No accounts, no tracking, no server round-trip on every slider change.
Frequently asked questions.
How do I create a CSS gradient with this builder?
Pick a gradient type (linear, radial, or conic), add color stops by choosing colors and positions, then adjust the angle or shape. The preview updates as you edit. When the gradient looks right, copy the generated CSS and paste it into your stylesheet's background property.
Does this gradient generator upload my data to a server?
No. The CSS Gradient Builder runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your colors, settings, and generated code never leave your device and nothing is sent to any server. There is no signup and no account, so your work stays completely private.
Can I build linear, radial, and conic gradients here?
Yes. The tool supports all three CSS gradient types. Switch between linear, radial, and conic to set direction by angle, center point, or shape. Each type gives you the matching CSS function, so you can copy ready-to-use linear-gradient, radial-gradient, or conic-gradient code.
Is the CSS gradient builder free to use?
Yes, it is completely free with no signup required. Because it runs client-side in your browser, there is nothing to install and no account to create. You can build as many gradients as you want and copy the CSS for each one at no cost.
