Gradient Best Practices

  • Subtle Gradients

    Subtle gradients often look more professional than harsh color transitions. Try using colors with similar hues or saturation.

  • Multiple Color Stops

    Use multiple color stops to create more complex and interesting gradients. Position them strategically for smooth transitions.

  • Consider Accessibility

    Ensure text placed over gradients has sufficient contrast. Test your design with accessibility tools.

  • Browser Compatibility

    For maximum compatibility, include vendor prefixes or use a CSS preprocessor that adds them automatically.
