Some Links About CSS Gradients

Recently, the blogosphere seems to be paying special attention to the topic of CSS gradient, and the relevant articles in my bookmarks have become lively. I happened to take this opportunity to organize and share some interesting links to articles.

• conic gradients — Manuel Matuzovic introduced conic gradients on day 21 in his 100-day modern CSS series, explaining in an easy-to-understand manner such as color, angle, position and color stop points. On the 22nd day, he applied it to the ::backdrop pseudo-element again. (By the way, Twitter accidentally banned his account - if possible, let's help him restore it together.)
• Do you really understand CSS radial gradient? — This article by Patrick Brosset is a guide-level work, and I am still studying it carefully. But I have appreciated his clear explanations and demonstrations that answered my long-standing confusion about radial gradient size and shape keywords. I've linked this post to our own CSS Gradient Guide!
• Highly customizable background gradient — Speaking of radial gradients, the radial gradient scheme of multi-color stops shared by Scott Vandehey last week has been widely circulated. His challenge is to create a gradient pattern that supports different color variations, which would be a mess if you don't use custom properties, you usually need to create a large number of CSS classes and color values ​​for each variation. In this way, he can assign a custom property to the different colors and the position values ​​of each color stop point, and then simply update these values ​​according to the context. More importantly, custom properties can be updated via JavaScript, which allows Scott to build a tool for custom gradient patterns and generously share the tool at the end of the article.
• CSS Halftone Pattern — Michelle Barker has made a detailed breakdown of Ana Tudor's "halftone" pattern. This effect is a bit like dot-in ink printing in old-fashioned newspapers. While Ana uses Houdini for animation and hover effects at the bottom, Michelle focuses specifically on the halftone effect itself and how it is built with radial gradients. I especially like the way Michelle shows how to transition from a simple dot matrix to a slightly staggered dot matrix. The article also ends with showing how to use linear gradients as a mask image to create a fade effect. I also tried this pattern and ended up with some interesting effects that looked like a blurred ink filter.
• A beautiful navigation bar solution — Eric Meyer faces an interesting menu design challenge that requires a dotted line from the "Current Page" link and become part of the larger dotted border on the left edge of the content container. Eric is always a great example of how to think like a front-end developer, and he does that here, as he describes the alternative he takes when he encounters obstacles when using the standard method of element setting border-style: dotted—using linear gradients.
• Dashed Lines with Mask Gradient — Eric supplemented the previous post by showing not only how to connect the dotted line of the left border to the dotted line of the raster image, but also how he perfected his design by using two repeated linear background gradients as masked images of the background gradients.marvelous!
