Checked
Where CSS Gradient is better
- A gallery of ready-made gradient swatches and color shade pages to start from.
- Per-stop transparency (RGBA alpha) and a 'Max compatibility' option that adds a solid-color fallback line. BrowserUtils' gradient generator uses the browser's color picker, which has no alpha.
- Articles and tutorials about CSS gradients alongside the tool.
Where BrowserUtils is better
- No third-party ads. cssgradient.io surrounds its generator with about ten programmatic ad slots, including a sticky footer.
- Also builds mesh gradients from multiple blended color points, plus glassmorphism effects.
- Color tools next to the gradient generator: HEX/RGB/HSL converter, palette generator and contrast checker.
