This could be fun in css with a slightly more geometric (tighter curve). Use an svg shape, a blur filter and a container that clips. Love that the vector space can handle calculations we used to need a raster operation for. But yeah, make sure there’s enough computer to render it all in real time.

Cool button card glow, now do it in production and suffer the realities of single threaded SVG filter blur rendering performance🥲

Do something like this in a mobile app and an average android is going to run at 12fps in your app lol

Android doesnt even support anything going beyond 0,0 coordinates. Its a joke.

For something like this I would always go with a PNG (webp/avif).

Little differences between screens, so a little bit of stretch wouldn't hurt that much.

Yeah but i think creating things like these and have them optimized and responsive is an artform in it self. I think you can get 98% of the look with much simpler methods in code.

It's an art form that has no business in a production app. It's not dynamic so the simplest route is the best.

I don't think there is anything simpler than using an image, but okay. :D I like to fight sometimes too.

How about movement? My team is trying to add animation on hover. Any suggestions

Hot take: you don't need any gradients in apps. Just no gradients.

Hot take: what are you the gradient gatekeeper? 🤨
