CSS Gradient Generator

CSS Gradients are pretty great.

Their syntax is pretty flexible, but can require a commanding knowledge of CSS and comma placement.

This PowerShell module tries to simplify things a bit.

Installing and Importing

You can install Gradient from the PowerShell Gallery

Install-Module Gradient

Once installed, you can import Gradient with Import-Module

Import-Module Gradient -PassThru

Cloning and Importing

You can also install this module by cloning the repository and importing it

git clone https://github.com/PowerShellWeb/Gradient
Import-Module ./Gradient -PassThru

Generating gradients

Gradients are really easy to generate:

Let's make a red green blue radial gradient

gradient red green blue

This will give us back a Gradient object.

It has our .input and also has a .css property that contains the gradient as CSS

(gradient red green blue).CSS

Gradients can get pretty cool. For some inspiration, check out the MDN topic on using gradients
