Last Updated : 30 Aug, 2024

The repeating-linear-gradient() function is an inbuilt function in CSS that is used to repeat linear gradients.

Syntax:

background-image: repeating-linear-gradient( angle | to side-or-corner, color-stop1,
color-stop2, ...);

Parameters: This function accepts many parameters which are listed below:

angle: This parameter is used to hold the angle of direction for the gradient. Its value lies between 0 to 360 degrees. By default, its value is 180 degrees.
side-or-corner: This parameter is used to define the position of the starting point of the gradient line. It consists of two keywords: the first one indicates the horizontal side, left or right, and the second one the vertical side, top or bottom. The order is not relevant and each of the keywords is optional.
color-stop1, color-stop2, ...: This parameter is used to hold the color value followed by its optional stop position.
