What is it?
Gradient text fills letters with a color gradient instead of one color. On the web it works with background-clip: text, which shows the background only inside the letters. It is a popular way to make headlines, hero sections and logos stand out.
What you can use it for
Hero headlines
A gradient headline gives a landing page an eye-catching focus without an image.
Buttons and highlights
Highlight one word in a sentence or the label of a call to action.
Social and slides
Export the text as PNG or SVG for social posts, thumbnails and presentations.
How it works
Type your text, then choose font, weight and size. Pick the gradient colors and direction, and switch on the shine if the colors should slide through the text. Copy the CSS or Tailwind classes, or export the headline as SVG, PNG or GIF.

- Choose colors with similar lightness so every letter stays readable.
- Bold fonts show gradients best; thin letters leave little room for the colors.
- The shine animation stops automatically for people who prefer reduced motion.
FAQ
- Is gradient text accessible?
- Yes, it stays real text that screen readers read and people can select. Check the contrast of the darkest and lightest color against the background.
- Why do I need -webkit-background-clip?
- Some browsers still need the prefixed property. The export contains both, so the effect works everywhere.
- Can I use my own font?
- Yes. The CSS works with any font on your site; the preview uses system fonts as a stand-in.
- Does the SVG contain the text as outlines?
- No. It contains real text with a system font stack, so it stays small and editable. Fonts can look slightly different on other computers.
