About this tool

Gradient text in CSS

Gradient text uses a gradient as the text fill via background-clip: text. Pick two colors and an angle and copy the CSS.

How it works

Set the gradient as the element's background, then add -webkit-background-clip: text (and the unprefixed background-clip: text) with color: transparent so the gradient shows through the letters. Add a plain color fallback for very old browsers.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about the Gradient Text Generator.

How do I make gradient text in CSS?

Apply a gradient as the background, then background-clip:text with color:transparent — generated here for you.

Why isn’t my gradient text showing?

You need both -webkit-background-clip:text and color:transparent; without transparent, the solid color hides the gradient.

Does gradient text work in all browsers?

All modern browsers (with the -webkit- prefix). Add a plain color fallback for very old ones.

Can I use more than two colors?

Yes — add more color stops to the gradient.
