But the trouble is finding the right colors to match your website, your Click-to-Action button, or whatever else you\u2019re designing.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/webgradients.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WebGradients<\/a> offers a <strong>free library of gradients you can browse through<\/strong> and dig up cool ideas. These are totally free and they all include the CSS3 source code along with PNGs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"note\"><strong>Read Also:<\/strong> <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/reset-default-css-colors\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Colors.css Offers New Defaults for Colors on The Web<\/a><\/p>\n<p>In fact, the entire application is available <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/itmeo\/webgradients\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">on GitHub<\/a> which offers pretty much everything at the click of a button.<\/p>\n<p>You can download the full gradient pack straight from GitHub as raw CSS codes inside a stylesheet file. Or you can download the gradients as raw PNG files, a Sketch file, or a PSD file for Photoshop.<\/p>\n<p>This is truly a massive collection of free gradients that should help any web designer. You can <strong>use this for every step of the design process<\/strong> from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/web-design-tutorials-the-ultimate-roundup\/\">web mockup design<\/a> all the way to frontend coding.<\/p>\n<p>If you click any of the gradient circles you\u2019ll get a full view expanded over the entire page. This lets you see how the gradient would look as a background, a pretty cool effect!<\/p>\n<p>Plus you\u2019ll find a download button in the top-right corner along with a link to copy the CSS right to your clipboard.<\/p>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/webgradients.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/webgradients-css-gradient-library\/02-sample-webgradients-colors.jpg\" alt=\"webgradients library\" width=\"1000\" height=\"566\"><\/a><\/figure>\n<p>Both of the PSD and Sketch files are linked in the navbar where they\u2019re hosted on Gumroad.<\/p>\n<p>Typically people use Gumroad as an online merchant but many designers release their stuff for <strong>free with optional gratuity<\/strong>. When downloading the files you can add a tip if you want, but either way both the Sketch and PSD files are released for free.<\/p>\n<p>Not every gradient in this list will work for your website. But it\u2019s a fairly comprehensive gallery with <strong>180 gradients<\/strong> so there\u2019s bound to be something here you might like.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Free library of gradients in CSS, .PNG, and PSD format to download and be used in any project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3393],"tags":[1833],"topic":[4520],"class_list":["entry-content","is-maxi"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.8 (Yoast SEO v27.6) -
