FAQs
Does an attractive gradient automatically provide readable text contrast?
Contrast can vary across a gradient. Check the text and controls against the actual area behind them rather than assuming the entire background has one contrast value.
Which inputs do I need for CSS Linear & Radial Gradient Code Generator?
Use Start Color (HEX); End Color (HEX); Gradient Angle (0° to 360°). The built-in examples show how those fields fit together.
What should I check before using this result?
