Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between linear, radial, and conic gradients?
A linear gradient transitions along a straight line at a given angle. A radial gradient radiates outward from a center point in a circle or ellipse. A conic gradient sweeps around a center point like a color wheel — useful for pie charts and loading spinners.
Can I use more than two color stops?
Yes — add as many stops as you need and position each one as a percentage. The generator writes them into the CSS in order.
Is the output just plain CSS?
Yes. You get a standard background: linear-gradient(...) (or radial/conic) declaration with no prefixes needed in modern browsers — paste it anywhere CSS is accepted.
