Gradient Text
CSS Output
background: linear-gradient(to right, #6366f1, #ec4899); -webkit-background-clip: text; -webkit-text-fill-color: transparent; background-clip: text;
How gradient text works in CSS
Gradient text is achieved with three CSS properties working together: a linear-gradient as the background, -webkit-background-clip: text to clip the gradient to the text shape, and -webkit-text-fill-color: transparent to make the text itself transparent so the gradient shows through.
Browser support
The -webkit-background-clip: text technique is supported in all modern browsers. The background-clip: text (without prefix) is also included for full standard compliance.
Tips for best results
- High-contrast color pairs produce the most readable gradient text.
- Bold or heavy font weights make the gradient more visible.
- Horizontal gradients (left to right) generally work best for single-line headings.
- Use 3–4 colors for a richer rainbow effect.
