Question 1

Is this CSS gradient generator free and private?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The CSS Gradient Generator is 100% free and runs entirely in your browser. There is no sign-up and no server — your gradient is built with local JavaScript, so nothing you create is uploaded or stored anywhere.

Question 2

What gradient types can I create?

Accepted Answer

You can create linear, radial, and conic gradients. Linear and conic gradients support an adjustable angle, while radial gradients spread outward from the center. Add, remove, reorder, and reposition as many color stops as you need.

Question 3

How do I export the gradient to Tailwind CSS v4?

Accepted Answer

Click "Copy @theme" to get a Tailwind v4 @theme block that registers the gradient as a custom property (--gradient-brand). You can then use it in your markup with an arbitrary value such as bg-(image:--gradient-brand). The "Copy CSS" button gives you the plain background declaration for any project.

Question 4

What is the interpolation color space option?

Accepted Answer

Modern CSS lets gradients interpolate in different color spaces. The default (sRGB) matches legacy behavior, while OKLCH and OKLab produce smoother, more perceptually even color transitions with fewer muddy mid-tones. Choosing OKLCH outputs linear-gradient(in oklch, ...), supported in all current major browsers.

Question 5

Can I share or save my gradient?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The full gradient state (type, angle, color space, and all stops) is encoded into the page URL as you edit, so you can bookmark it or paste the link to share the exact same gradient with anyone.

Question 6

Which browsers support these CSS gradients?

Accepted Answer

Linear, radial, and conic gradients are supported across all modern browsers. The "in <color-space>" interpolation syntax (e.g. oklch) is supported in current versions of Chrome, Edge, Safari, and Firefox; older browsers fall back gracefully to the default sRGB interpolation.
