- Multi-Color Stops: Add unlimited color stops with precise position control
- Angle Control: 0-360 degree slider for gradient direction
- Preset Templates: 6 curated gradient presets for one-click application
- Repeating Gradients: Support for repeating-gradient to create texture effects
How to Use
1. Select gradient type (linear/radial/conic).
2. Click a preset for quick application, or manually add color stops.

Use Cases
Page Backgrounds
Designers use gradient backgrounds to add visual depth, replacing flat solid colors.
Button Styles
Frontend engineers use gradient buttons for enhanced interaction appeal over solid-color buttons.
Data Visualization

Technical Background
CSS gradients are background image types defined in the CSS Images Module, belonging to the image data type. They can be used with background, border-image, and list-style-image properties. Linear gradients transition colors along a specified direction; radial gradients radiate from a center point; conic gradients rotate around a center. Color stops define key colors and positions within the gradient. CSS gradients are resolution-independent and load faster than bitmap images, making them a core technology in modern web design. Repeating gradients can create stripe, checkerboard, and other pattern effects.
