Tips
The CSS text-shadow generator lets you craft beautiful text effects without writing a single line of CSS by hand. Adjust the X/Y offset, blur radius, shadow color, and opacity using intuitive sliders, then stack multiple shadow layers to create neon glows, fire effects, embossed text, or classic hard drops. A real-time preview updates instantly as you tweak values, and one click copies the production-ready CSS rule.
Stack 2–3 shadow layers, all with zero X/Y offset, increasing blur radii (e.g. 6px, 18px, 40px), and the same vivid color at decreasing opacity. The result is a soft, layered luminous glow around each character. Use the Neon Pink preset in this tool as a starting point.
Yes. CSS allows a comma-separated list of shadow values in one text-shadow declaration. This tool's layer system generates exactly that — each layer you add becomes another comma-separated entry, applied back-to-front in the browser.
Offset X shifts the shadow horizontally (positive = right, negative = left) and Offset Y shifts it vertically (positive = down, negative = up). Setting both to zero with a blur creates a glow that spreads evenly in all directions.
Yes. The text-shadow property has near-universal browser support, including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and modern mobile browsers. It was standardised in CSS3 and has been supported since around 2010, so no vendor prefixes or fallbacks are needed.
