How to Use CSS Gradient Text Effects
Gradient text is achieved using the -webkit-background-clip: text technique combined with -webkit-text-fill-color: transparent. This method works in all modern browsers and creates visually striking headings and display text. According to Wikipedia's CSS article, CSS gradients have been widely supported since CSS3.
