Why does my gradient look "Muddy"?

This usually happens when you transition between two colors on opposite sides of the Color Wheel. To fix this, add a third "Bridge" color in the middle to keep the saturation high.

Are gradients better for SEO than images?

Yes! Gradients are just a few bytes of text. Images can be 100KB or more. Faster loading times lead to better [Google Core Web Vitals](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/SEO).

Can I use these gradients on text?

Yes! You can use `background-clip: text` and `text-fill-color: transparent` to apply any gradient to your typography.

What is a "Conic" gradient?

It's a gradient that rotates around a center point, like a clock. It's perfect for creating Color Wheels or pie charts.

Is it safe to copy this code?

Yes. All code generated here is [Open-Source](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/gradient) and follows standard CSS3 specifications.

How do I make a "Striped" gradient?

By setting two color stops to the same location (e.g., `Red 50%`, `Blue 50%`), you create a sharp line instead of a smooth blend.

How Generador de Gradientes Works

A CSS Gradient Generator is a visual design tool that creates smooth transitions between two or more colors. In the early days of the web, gradients required heavy image files (.png or .jpg). Modern web design uses the CSS3 Linear-Gradient property, which is infinitely scalable, lightning-fast to load, and can be edited in real-time. This tool provides a high-assurance interface to create these complex mathematical color ramps without writing a single line of code.

The generation engine calculates your visual design using a standardized coordinate system:

Stop Management: The tool allows you to place "Color Stops" along a virtual line. Each stop consists of a Hex/RGB Color and a percentage position (e.g., 50%).
Angle Interpolation: The engine calculates the direction of the transition (e.g., 90deg for horizontal, 180deg for vertical).
Color Blending (Interpolation): The browser uses mathematical algorithms to calculate every intermediate pixel between your stops. This tool lets you preview how these colors interact in real-time.
Repeat & Mode Logic: The generator can toggle between "Linear" (straight lines) and "Radial" (circles/ellipses) gradients.
Output Serialization: The final result is a production-ready CSS snippet: background: linear-gradient(90deg, #ff0000 0%, #0000ff 100%);.

The History of Gradients and the CSS Working Group

Before 2008, gradients were "Baked" into images. In 2008, Apple proposed the first gradient syntax for the WebKit engine (Safari).

However, the original syntax was extremely complex and difficult to read. The W3C CSS Working Group stepped in to standardize the syntax into the human-readable version we use today. This shift allowed for the rise of "Flat Design 2.0" and "Glassmorphism," where subtle gradients are used to create depth and realism without sacrificing Web Performance.

Technical Comparison: Linear vs. Radial vs. Conic Gradients

Choosing the right "Ramp" determines the mood and physics of your UI.

Feature	Linear Gradient	Radial Gradient	Conic Gradient
Direction	Straight Line (Angle)	Origin Point (Center)	Circular (Clockwise)
Common Use	Hero Sections / Buttons	Spotlights / Shadows	Pie Charts / Loading Spinners
CSS Syntax	`linear-gradient()`	`radial-gradient()`	`conic-gradient()`
Complexity	Low	Moderate	High
Modern Support	Universal	Universal	High (Modern Browsers)

By using a dedicated CSS Gradient Generator, you ensure your styles are Cross-Browser Compatible and follow modern design standards.

Security and Performance Considerations

While gradients are code-based, they still impact the user's experience:

Paint Performance: Extremely complex gradients with dozens of stops can increase the "Paint Time" on older mobile devices. Stick to 2-5 stops for the best performance.
Accessibility (Contrast): Always ensure your gradient text or background maintains a WCAG Contrast Ratio of at least 4.5:1 for readability.
Color Banding: On low-quality monitors, gradients can look "Pixelated" or "Stepped." Using Subtle Opacity or high-quality HSL colors can help smooth out these transitions.
Client-Side Privacy: To maintain your absolute Data Privacy, the entire rendering and code generation happens locally in your browser. Your brand colors and design drafts are never sent to a server.
