## What it is
Grabient is a web application for generating CSS gradients and discovering color palettes, built as a Cloudflare Worker with Hono and SolidJS islands. Palettes are encoded as compact cosine gradients whose full identity fits in a URL, with semantic search over palette vectors.

## Use cases
- generate css linear and angular gradients
- find color palettes by describing them in words
- export gradients as css svg or png
- share a gradient via a url
- browse popular gradient palettes for web design
- create color swatches for a ui theme

## When to choose
- you need a visual gradient generator with shareable urls
- you want semantic palette search rather than name-based lookup
- you want a self-hostable Cloudflare Workers app for gradient tooling

## When to avoid
- you need a programmatic gradient library to embed in your own build
- you require CI/CD pipelines or multi-cloud deployment
- you need offline desktop tooling
