Create Any CSS Gradient Background With Full Colour Space And Export Control
The gradient generator is a must have tool for developers and designers who want to create attractive CSS background gradient without writing them from scratch.
This tool makes your workflow easier if you are a developer creating an eye catching hero section or a UI designer looking to implement smooth multi colour transitions of card backgrounds. Supports up to 5 colours with independent position control to create the perfect gradient backgrounds you are thinking of.
Select the linear and radial gradient types and use angles from 0 to 360 degrees for perfect alignment. Employ six colour space options – OKLCH, OKLAB, LCH, LAB, HSL and SRGB – for unprecedented colour accuracy.
Longer interpolation is better for complex designs; transition styles are simple with short paths. Plus, our palette export tool generates 10 to 32 intermediate hex codes from the gradient you selected to easily incorporate into any design system.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I create a CSS gradient background for free?
Open the Gradient Generator on ToolCompanion, add your colours, select linear or radial type, adjust settings and copy the ready to use CSS code stright away at no cost.
What is the difference between a linear and radial gradient in CSS?
Linear gradient allows you to move colours along a straight line at any angle you desire. A radial gradient radiates colours outwards from a center point in a circular pattern.
Which color space should I use for the smoothest gradient?
OKLCH and OKLAB are perceptually uniform colour spaces that yield smoother, visually more even transitions, without muddy or grey midpoints. HSL and SRGB are more common but can cause banding in some gradients.
Can I use a gradient as a website background without an image?
Yes. CSS gradients are rendered natively by the browser, and don’t require any image file. They scale perfectly at any resolution, load faster than images and work on all modern browsers.
How do I export a color palette from a gradient?
In the palette export section, you can use the step slider to choose between 10 and 32 intermediate colours. The tool will generate all the hex codes evenly distributed across the gradient and you can copy them all at once.
