Building a gradient without an editor

01

Two stops and an angle

A linear gradient between two colours covers most of what gradients are actually used for. The angle rotates the axis: 90 degrees runs top to bottom, 0 runs left to right, and 45 gives the diagonal that reads as the default in most interfaces.

02

Picking colours that do not go muddy

Two colours close together on the wheel blend cleanly. Colours from opposite sides pass through grey in the middle, which is why a blue-to-orange gradient so often looks dirty. Stay within about a quarter turn unless the muddy midpoint is the effect you want.

03

When a file beats CSS

A CSS gradient is better on the web — it scales and costs nothing. A file is what you need for slides, video, email, print and anywhere else that will not run CSS. That is the gap this fills.

04

Generate at final size

Gradients scale badly when they are stretched a long way, picking up visible banding. Set the dimensions you actually need here rather than making one small file and resizing it.

05

Lossless output

The PNG holds the smooth ramp exactly. A JPG would add blocky artefacts across the transition, which is the one place they are most visible.

How to generate a gradient image

Pick two colours

Keep them within about a quarter of the colour wheel to avoid a muddy midpoint.

2

What people use it for

The jobs the editor was built around — and what it does differently on each one.

Colourways you can revisit

Every edit is a layer, not a bake. When the brand shifts, reopen the file and change the colour rather than rebuilding the variant from the original.

Cutouts with awkward edges

AI background removal that keeps hair, foliage and soft shadows instead of stamping a hard outline around them. The output is a transparent PNG, ready to place.

No export, edit, re-import loop

The Framer plugin runs on the canvas you are already working in, so a recolour or a cutout does not mean a round trip through a second application.

Ten options in the time one used to take

Recolour once and step through the alternatives, so a client review can look at the whole range instead of the one version there was time to make.

Brand colours matched exactly

Pick a colour straight off an existing asset and get the hex, rather than eyeballing it against a screenshot and hoping it is close enough.

Free to preview, priced per export

Previewing is unlimited and costs nothing. A credit is spent only when you download a full-resolution file, so exploring an idea is never the expensive part.
