FAQ

How do CSS metallic effects work?

Metallic effects use a linear-gradient with multiple color stops that mimic light reflections. The gradient is applied to text via background-clip: text and -webkit-text-fill-color: transparent.

Can I apply a metallic effect to a background instead of text?

Yes. Remove background-clip: text and -webkit-text-fill-color: transparent and apply the gradient directly as the element's background property.

Is background-clip: text supported in all browsers?

Yes, background-clip: text is supported in all modern browsers. Include the -webkit-background-clip: text prefix for full compatibility with older WebKit-based browsers.
