Glassmorphism Generator

Glassmorphism Generator - Modern Glass Effect CSS

Create stunning glassmorphism effects for your web designs. This tool generates CSS code for the popular frosted glass UI trend, featuring backdrop blur, transparency, and subtle borders that create depth and visual hierarchy.

What is Glassmorphism?

Glassmorphism is a modern UI design trend that creates a frosted glass effect. It uses:

- Semi-transparent backgrounds
- Backdrop blur filter
- Subtle borders for edge definition
- Soft shadows for depth

This style became popular in 2020-2021 and is used by Apple, Microsoft, and many modern web applications. It creates a sense of depth while maintaining readability.

How does backdrop-filter work?

The backdrop-filter CSS property applies effects to the area behind an element:

blur(10px) - Creates the frosted glass effect
saturate(180%) - Enhances colors behind the element
brightness() - Adjusts brightness
contrast() - Adjusts contrast

Important: The element must have a semi-transparent background for the effect to be visible. Full opacity will block the backdrop filter.

What browsers support glassmorphism?

Backdrop-filter support:

Chrome 76+ (full support)
Firefox 103+ (full support)
Safari 9+ (with -webkit- prefix)
Edge 79+ (full support)
Opera 63+ (full support)

Always include the -webkit- prefix for Safari:
backdrop-filter: blur(10px);
-webkit-backdrop-filter: blur(10px);

For older browsers, consider a solid fallback background.

Best practices for glassmorphism design

Tips for effective glassmorphism:

1. Use on colorful backgrounds - The effect works best over gradients or images
2. Keep blur moderate (8-20px) - Too much blur loses the glass feel
3. Use subtle transparency (15-30%) - Maintain readability
4. Add thin borders - Helps define edges
5. Consider contrast - Ensure text is readable
6. Use sparingly - Too many glass elements can be overwhelming
7. Test performance - Backdrop-filter can be GPU intensive
