Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Gradient Design > "Color in motion. Fluid transitions that add energy and depth to flat surfaces." ## When to Use Use this sub-style when the user's request matches the aesthetic described above. This is a child reference of the `design-it` skill and is not meant to be triggered directly. ## Core Principles 1. **Gradients are the Primary Visual**: Backgrounds, buttons, text, and borders all use gradients instead of solid colors. 2. **Analogous or Complementary Blends**: Gradients must be carefully chosen so the transition colors don't become muddy (e.g., blending red to green creates a muddy brown in the middle. Blend red to yellow to green instead). 3. **Subtle Animation**: Background gradients should slowly shift and rotate. ## Visual DNA - **Colors**: **Warm Tech** (blues to oranges) or create custom vibrant pairs (e.g., Purple to Coral, Deep Blue to Cyan). - **Typography**: Clean, heavy sans-serifs that can be easily masked with a gradient fill. - **Layout**: Keep the UI structure minimal (glass panels or white/black cards) to let the gradients breathe. ## Web Implementation - **CSS Example**: ```css body { /* Complex mesh-like animated gradient */ background: linear-gradient

What does the gradient-design skill do?
Web and App implementation guide for Gradient Design. Trigger when user wants heavy gradient usage, vibrant transitions, and modern energetic feels.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill gradient-design --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
