Colour to colour
Lime Green to Hot Pink gradient
Lime Green (#32cd32) into Hot Pink (#ff69b4) — 151° apart on the OKLCH hue wheel. Below: the same two stops interpolated in OKLab and in OKLCH, side by side, because the difference is real and most generators never let you see it; then an eased version and a mesh, each with the worst-case contrast for white and black text. The engine's own pick for this pair is oklch: ΔH 151° > 140° — interpolating in oklch (shorter hue) keeps the midpoint saturated.
OKLab and OKLCH, side by side
OKLab
Open in maker →A straight line through the a/b plane: the two hues meet halfway and desaturate a little at the midpoint. The safe default — it is what CSS and Tailwind default to.
linear-gradient(135deg in oklab, #32cd32 0%, #ff69b4 100%)
OKLCH (shorter hue)
Open in maker →Chroma and hue interpolate separately, so the midpoint keeps its saturation and the hue travels the short way round the wheel — richer, and it can pass through hues neither colour has.
linear-gradient(135deg in oklch shorter hue, #32cd32 0%, #ff69b4 100%)
And the sRGB line most tools draw, for comparison — the number is the chroma that survives at the dullest point.
Eased and mesh
Eased (soft)
Open in maker →A cubic-bezier(.4, 0, .6, 1) mix ratio baked into 15 stops: the transition lingers on each colour and moves faster through the middle, which is what makes a gradient read as designed rather than default.
linear-gradient(135deg in oklch shorter hue, #32cd32 0%, #44cc24 8.28%, #66c800 16.03%, #8dbf00 23.35%, #adb500 30.32%, #c6aa00 37.03%, #dc9d00 43.56%, #f28e00 50%, #ff7900 56.44%, #ff7249 62.97%, #ff6d70 69.68%, #ff678c 76.65%, #ff67a1 83.97%, #ff68af 91.72%, #ff69b4 100%)
Mesh
Open in maker →Both colours as stacked radials over a base, laid out by a seeded Poisson-disc sampler — the same seed gives the same mesh forever. Exports as CSS, SVG and PNG.

Report
- white ink: worst 2.12:1 at 2% (fails AA); black ink: worst 7.55:1 at 89% (AA) → use black text.
- Banding medium: ~7px bands at 1440px — add grain 13 (≈2% soft-light noise) or shorten the ramp.
- 54/64 samples left sRGB by more than 5% and were gamut-mapped (oklch shorter); expect slight hue drift there.

Point any MCP client at the shared gradients endpoint and your agent gets the same engine as this page — make_gradient returns CSS with the interpolation space, Tailwind v4, SVG, a PNG URL, a DTCG token and the contrast report in one call; brand_gradients derives the whole contact sheet from a brand or a palette. Read-only, no key. Every gradient is a /gradients/new/… link: open it, refine, paste it back.
