You can add up to six stops to balance flexibility and clean output.

What is the best angle for hero backgrounds?

A range between 120deg and 150deg often works well for modern hero sections.

When to use each gradient type

Choosing the right gradient type depends on the surface area, visual weight, and context of the element you are styling.

Linear

Best for hero sections, banners, and wide containers. Use angles between 120-150deg for modern directional flow.

Radial

Ideal for spotlight effects, circular buttons, and centered focal points. Works well with soft color transitions.

Conic

Great for pie-chart visuals, color wheel effects, and decorative backgrounds with rotational symmetry.

Gradient best practices

Do this

Use 2-3 color stops for clean, professional gradients. More stops add complexity fast.
Keep text readable by ensuring sufficient contrast against gradient backgrounds.
Test gradients on both light and dark mode surfaces before shipping.

Avoid this

Avoid high-saturation gradients that create harsh banding on low-quality displays.
Don't layer gradients with complex text without testing contrast ratios.
Don't use gradients purely for decoration if they compete with content hierarchy.
