🏗 Usage Examples

Linear Gradient Component

// Import the component...
import { Gradient } from 'uigradients';

// Now, use it!
class App extends Component {
    // If no gradient preset is provided,
    // a random preset will be used.
    return (
      <Gradient preset="cherry">
        <h1>This will draw a div with a cherry gradient, like the one you're looking at right now.</h1>
      </Gradient>
    );
}

cherry is only one of the many presets provided by uigradients

A complete list of the gradient presets can be previewed here. You can use your own preset library via GradientProvider

Radial Gradient Component

import { Gradient } from 'uigradients';

class App extends Component {
    return (
      // Add a "type" attribute on your component and
      // set it to "radial" for a radial gradient!
      // NOTE: If a "type" attribute is not on
      // your component, the gradient type will
      // default to linear
      <Gradient preset="aubergine" type="radial">
        <h1>Wow, a radial gradient!</h1>
      </Gradient>
    );
}
