Episode 3: How To Use Gradients

Gradients make objects stand out by adding a new dimension and realism to a design. Simply put, gradients add depth to an image.

We can also refer to gradients as color maps since the color scheme varies along the gradient as opposed to solid colors which only have one HEX code.

This kind of gradient starts with two colors on opposite ends of the element. In this case, it’s a lighter blue in the top-left corner and a darker blue in the bottom-right. The color smoothly transitions between the two.
