Understanding CSS Gradients
CSS gradients are images created by smooth transitions between colors. They're rendered by the browser, meaning they're resolution-independent and always sharp. Linear gradients flow in a straight line, radial gradients emanate from a center point, and conic gradients sweep around like a color wheel.
Common Use Cases
Gradients are used for hero section backgrounds, button hover effects, loading indicators, creative text effects, and modern UI design. They can replace images for faster load times and perfect scaling.
