CSS GRADIENT & GLASSMORPHISM GENERATOR

CSS Gradient & Glassmorphism Generator

Design a gradient or a frosted-glass card visually, then copy the exact CSS — no guessing values.

How this tool works

The gradient generator builds a standard CSS linear-gradient() or radial-gradient() function from the colors and angle you choose, updating the live preview in real time so you can see exactly what you're building before copying anything. Linear gradients blend colors along a straight line at whatever angle you set; radial gradients blend outward from a center point instead — useful for spotlight or glow effects.

The glassmorphism side generates the "frosted glass" look that's been a consistent UI trend for several years: a semi-transparent background color combined with backdrop-filter: blur(), which blurs whatever sits behind the element rather than the element itself. That's the key property that makes it look like actual frosted glass instead of a plain transparent box — and it's included with the -webkit- prefix too, since Safari requires it for the same effect.

Frequently asked questions

Why doesn't the glass effect show up when I paste the CSS into my project?
Check two things: the element needs actual content or a background behind it to blur (an empty page shows nothing to blur), and backdrop-filter isn't supported in every older browser — check current browser support if you need to support very old versions.

What's the difference between opacity and the tint's alpha value here?
This tool controls the background color's transparency directly via an rgba() value (the "Opacity" slider), which is what actually creates the glass tint — a separate CSS opacity property would fade the entire element including its content and border, which isn't what you want for this effect.

Can I use more than 3 colors in a gradient?
This tool supports up to 3 stops for simplicity, but CSS gradients support unlimited color stops — you can manually extend the generated code by adding more comma-separated colors if you need a more complex blend.

Is the generated CSS copy-paste ready for any framework?
Yes — it's plain CSS, so it works the same whether you're using vanilla CSS, Tailwind's arbitrary values, styled-components, or any other approach that ultimately outputs CSS.
