CSS Conic Gradients

A conic gradient is a gradient with color transitions rotated around a center point.

To create a conic gradient you must define at least two colors.

Syntax

background-image: conic-gradient([from angle] [at position,] color [ degree] , color [ degree] , ...);

By default, angle is 0deg and position is center.

If no degree is specified, the colors will be spread equally around the center point.

Conic Gradient: Three Colors

The following example shows a conic gradient with three colors:

Example

A conic gradient with three colors:

#grad {
background-image: conic-gradient(red, yellow, green);
}

Conic Gradient: Three Colors and Degrees

The following example shows a conic gradient with three colors and a degree for each color:

Example

A conic gradient with three colors and a degree for each color:

#grad {
background-image: conic-gradient(red 45deg, yellow 90deg, green 210deg);
}

Create Pie Charts

Just add border-radius: 50% to make the conic gradient look like a pie:

Example

#grad {
background-image: conic-gradient(red, yellow, green, blue, black);
border-radius: 50%;
}

Here is another pie chart with defined degrees for all the colors:

Example

#grad {
background-image: conic-gradient(red 0deg, red 90deg, yellow 90deg, yellow 180deg, green 180deg, green 270deg, blue 270deg);
border-radius: 50%;
}

Conic Gradient With Specified From Angle

The [from angle] specifies an angle that the entire conic gradient is rotated by.

The following example shows a conic gradient with a from angle of 90deg:

Example

A conic gradient with a from angle:

#grad {
background-image: conic-gradient(from 90deg, red, yellow, green);
}

Conic Gradient With Specified Center Position

The [at position] specifies the center of the conic gradient.

The following example shows a conic gradient with a center position of 60% 45%:

Example

A conic gradient with a specified center position:

#grad {
background-image: conic-gradient(at 60% 45%, red, yellow, green);
}

Repeating a Conic Gradient

The repeating-conic-gradient() function is used to repeat conic gradients:

Example

A repeating conic gradient:

#grad {
background-image: repeating-conic-gradient(red 10%, yellow 20%);
border-radius: 50%;
}

Here is a repeating conic gradient with defined color-starts and color-stops:

Example

A repeating conic gradient with defined color-starts and color-stops:

#grad {
background-image: repeating-conic-gradient(red 0deg 10deg, yellow 10deg 20deg, blue 20deg 30deg);
border-radius: 50%;
}
