Frequently asked questions
Can I use more than two colours?
This generator keeps it to two stops for clarity; you can add more stops by hand in the copied CSS.
Is anything uploaded?
No — the gradient is generated entirely in your browser.
Does radial support angles?
Angles apply to linear gradients; radial gradients emanate from the centre.
