A website with gradient effects refers to a web design that utilizes smooth transitions between two or more colors. These gradients can be used for backgrounds, buttons, navigation bars, or other UI elements to create a visually appealing and modern look. Gradients are often used to enhance the aesthetic appeal of a website and can evoke certain emotions or themes. Designers may choose different types of gradients, such as linear, radial, or conic, depending on the desired visual effect.
