Best practices when designing a gradient

Designing a gradient involves creating a visual effect where colors blend seamlessly into each other. By incorporating a gradient, the overall appearance of a UI component is enhanced compared to using a single solid color.

Type of Gradient

1. Linear Gradient

2. Radial Gradient

3. Angular Gradient

4. Mesh Gradient

How to use Gradient in UI?

– Don’t add a gradient unless it’s necessary.
– It’s specifically used to add depth to the UI component.
