What is CSS Gradients?

CSS Gradient is a type of technology that can be used in HTML The element background shows the smooth colour transition technology. Unlike traditional background pictures, gradients are vector graphics that are rendered in real time by browsers, which means that they have unlimited clarity and do not add to the load of pages (only a few lines of text codes).

Why use gradients in web design?

In flat design (Flat Design) Micro Gradient (Semi-flat) In the process of evolution, the Gradient Color became a tool for raising the web quality. It can solve the following design pains:

  • Increase visual depth: The subtle change in colour gives space sense and photometric effect to the original monotonous plane.
