CSS Gradient CTA Button

A conversion-grade CTA with a conic gradient ring that rotates continuously, a soft bloom underneath, and a mesh gradient body that shifts on hover. The rotation is possible at all because @property registers the angle as an <angle> type — plain custom properties cannot be animated.

How this works

Registering the property gives the browser a type it knows how to interpolate, which turns an un-animatable gradient into a smooth one:

@property --cb-05-a{ syntax:'<angle>'; inherits:false; initial-value:0deg; }

.cb-05__btn::before{
  content:''; position:absolute; inset:-2px; border-radius:inherit; z-index:-1;
  background:conic-gradient(from var(--cb-05-a),
    var(--c1),var(--c2),var(--c3),var(--c1));
  animation:cb-05-spin 4.5s linear infinite;
}
@keyframes cb-05-spin{ to{ --cb-05-a:360deg; } }

The ring is a slightly larger layer behind the button, so the button's own opaque background masks the middle and only a 2px rim shows — cheaper and rounder than a border-image. A second copy of the same layer, blurred with filter:blur(18px) and opacity, is the bloom; on hover the opacity rises and the button lifts.

The body itself is two overlapping radial gradients whose background-position shifts on hover, so the surface feels lit rather than flat.

Make it yours

  • Recolour with the three stop tokens --c1/--c2/--c3 — keep them within ~120° of hue for a premium look, spread them wide for a playful one.
  • Speed: 4.5s reads as premium; under 2s it looks like a loading state, which is a usability bug on a CTA.
  • Thicken the ring by changing inset:-2px to -3px; the radius follows automatically via border-radius:inherit.
  • Turn the bloom off for dark UI density by setting --bloom:0; hover still raises it.
  • For a static gradient (no motion budget) delete the animation and keep from 135deg — the ring still reads as premium.

Gotchas — read before shipping

  • A custom property is a token string until you register it; @property with the right syntax is mandatory or the keyframes simply snap at 50%.
  • Infinite motion on a primary CTA is an accessibility risk — the prefers-reduced-motion block here stops the spin and keeps a fixed-angle gradient, which is not optional.
  • filter:blur() on a large layer is fill-rate heavy; keep the bloom element at the button's size, never full-viewport, and never animate the blur radius itself.
  • Gradient text on gradient fills destroys contrast. Keep the label a solid colour with ≥4.5:1 against the darkest gradient stop.
  • Put the ring at z-index:-1 with isolation:isolate on the button — without isolation the negative index can slip behind the page background in some stacking contexts.

Browser support

Floor set by oklch(), color-mix(), @property as this demo is written. The core technique itself goes back further — Chrome 85+.

@property needs Chrome 85 / Safari 16.4 / Firefox 128; older engines show the ring at its initial angle without spinning (fully usable). conic-gradient is universal since 2020.
