How to Create Text Gradient in CSS (Background Clip Tutorial)

TEXT GRADIENT EFFECT

Create Stunning UI Text Using Pure CSS (No JavaScript)

What is a Text Gradient in CSS?

A text gradient effect allows you to apply multiple colors to your text, creating a visually appealing and modern UI design. Instead of using plain colors, you can use CSS gradients to make your text stand out on websites, landing pages, and portfolios.

This technique uses background-clip: text and -webkit-text-fill-color to apply the gradient directly to the text. It is lightweight, fast, and does not require any JavaScript.
