## What is Gradient Text Generator?

Gradient Text Generator is a tool for creating CSS gradient text, previewing it live, and copying the generated code for headings, logos, or other decorative text. You can type your own text, choose a linear or radial gradient, and adjust the result while checking it against a custom background color.

It is especially useful for hero headings, logo-like text, and short phrases that need more visual emphasis.

## How to Use

1. Enter the text you want to style.
2. Choose a linear or radial gradient.
3. Adjust the colors, stop positions, angle, or shape.
4. Change the preview background color if needed.
5. Copy the generated CSS.

Because the preview background can also be changed, it is easier to check whether the gradient still looks readable in the environment where you plan to use it.

## Main Settings

### Text

You can freely change the text shown in the preview. This works well for testing short headings, taglines, and logo-style words.

### Gradient Type

Switch between linear and radial gradients. Linear gradients use an angle, while radial gradients use `**circle**` or `**ellipse**`.

### Color Stops

You can add up to 8 color stops and place them between 0% and 100%. The **Equal Position** option helps arrange them before fine-tuning.

### Background Color

This lets you preview the text against a light or dark background so you can check both appearance and contrast.

## Input and Output Example

For example, if you apply a `**135deg**` linear gradient to the text `**Gradient Text Generator**`, the generated CSS looks like this:

```css
background: linear-gradient(135deg, #ff6b6b 0%, #feca57 33%, #48dbfb 66%, #1dd1a1 100%);
color: transparent;
-webkit-background-clip: text;
background-clip: text;
-webkit-text-fill-color: transparent;
text-fill-color: transparent;
```

## Use Cases

- Highlighting a landing page headline
- Testing logo-like text treatments
- Adding emphasis to a short section title or tagline
- Comparing how gradient text looks on different backgrounds

## Things to Keep in Mind

- Gradient text is decorative, so it is usually a poor fit for long body text
- Readability can drop quickly depending on the background color and color choices
- Since the effect relies on `**background-clip: text**`, it is worth thinking about fallback styling for important content
