I built a gradient generator that goes way beyond CSS

Hey r/SideProject,

I’ve been working on AnyGradient, a gradient editor for designers and developers.

I started building it because most gradient generators I came across were either very basic CSS tools or focused on exporting images. I wanted something where I could create more complex gradients and then actually use them in a real project.

AnyGradient supports:

  • OKLCH and Display-P3 colors
  • different color interpolation methods
  • linear, radial and conic gradients
  • layered gradients and noise
  • Image to Gradient tool
  • export to CSS, Tailwind, React, React Native, SwiftUI, Android, Flutter, Figma, PNG, WebP
  • a collection of ready-made gradients that can be opened and edited
  • import gradient code

The main goal is to keep the visual editing experience simple while still giving you much more control when you need it.

I recently launched it and I’m now trying to figure out what’s actually worth improving or building next. Would love to hear what you think, especially if you’re a designer or developer who uses gradients in real projects.

I designed a gradient generator around OKLCH & Display-P3 and looking for honest UI/UX critique

Hi everyone,

I recently launched AnyGradient, a gradient generator that I designed and built myself.

The main challenge was trying to make fairly advanced color features like OKLCH, Display-P3, color interpolation, noise, and layered gradients feel approachable without turning the interface into a wall of controls.

After working on it for quite a while, I’ve reached the stage where I’ve stared at the UI for far too long to judge it objectively anymore.

I’d especially appreciate feedback on:

  • First impression: Is it immediately clear what the tool does?
  • Visual hierarchy: Does your attention go to the right places?
  • Generator UI: Do the controls feel intuitive, or too dense?
  • Landing page: Does it explain the product clearly without overexplaining?
  • Overall feel: Does it feel like a polished design tool, or are there parts that still feel unfinished or inconsistent?

I’m particularly interested in criticism rather than compliments, so feel free to point out anything that feels confusing, unnecessary, awkward, or overdesigned.

Thanks!
