For more control overt the direction of the gradient, define angle as in the below syntax −
background-image: linear-gradient(angle, color-stop1, color-stop2);

}
.linearGradient1 {
background-image: linear-gradient(-90deg, rgb(255, 0, 200), yellow);
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Linear Gradient direction using angles</h1>
<div class="linearGradient"></div>
<div class="linearGradient1"></div>
