How to add transparency to a CSS gradient?

To add transparency, we use the rgba () function to define the color stops.

The following example shows a linear gradient that starts from the left.

How to control the direction of a gradient?

If you want more control over the direction of the gradient, you can define an angle, instead of the predefined directions (to bottom, to top, to right, to left, to bottom right, etc.). background-image: linear-gradient(angle, color-stop1, color-stop2);
