Ripples CSS pattern

Concentric rings from the center, like ripples on water.

background-color: #0f172a;
background-image: repeating-radial-gradient(circle at 50% 50%, #38bdf8 0px 1.5px, transparent 2.5px 21.5px, #38bdf8 22.5px 24px);

How to use this pattern

Copy the CSS into the rule of the element that should carry the pattern, for example a section, a card or the body. The colors are hex values in the code and can be swapped directly. In the editor you change everything with sliders and can also export the pattern as SVG or PNG.
