How to use the CSS Gradient Generator.
A gradient should specify direction, stops and intended surface. Check contrast wherever text overlays it and provide a solid fallback when the design requires one.
Make the workflow fit your task.
Specify the surface, direction, color stops and fallback, then generate the CSS declaration. Test the full gradient behind any overlaid content and inspect responsive cropping. Keep text contrast separate from the visual appeal of the background.

Example input
Create a left-to-right background from #fff7ed to #fed7aa, with a solid fallback.
Completed example
background-color: #fff7ed; background-image: linear-gradient(90deg, #fff7ed 0%, #fed7aa 100%); Check any foreground text against the full gradient, not just one endpoint.
Load this input into the prompt, then copy it to WebAct to try the task. Your result may differ from the illustration.
Decisions and troubleshooting.
Is checking contrast at one gradient endpoint enough for overlaid text?
No. The text may cross a different or less contrasting part of the gradient. Test the actual positions and states.
Why does the gradient direction differ from the intended layout?
Angle conventions and element geometry affect appearance. Render the declaration on the target surface and inspect the result.
