CSS Syntax

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

at position Optional. Specifies the gradient center of the conic gradient. Default value is center
color degree, ..., color degree Color stops are the colors you want to render smooth transitions among. This value consists of a color value, followed by an optional stop position (a degree between 0 and 360 or a percent between 0% and 100%).

More Examples

Example

A conic gradient with five colors:

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

Example

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

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

Example

Make the conic gradient look like a pie by adding border-radius: 50%:

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

Example

A conic gradient with a from angle:

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

Example

A conic gradient with an at position:

#grad {
  background-image: conic-gradient(at 60% 45%, red, yellow, green);
  border-radius: 50%;
}

Example

A conic gradient with both from angle and at position:

#grad {
  background-image: conic-gradient(from 90deg at 60% 45%, red, yellow, green);
  border-radius: 50%;
}

Example

Another pie chart:

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