How to edit and export cleanly

Use CSS Box Shadow Generator when you need to visually create CSS box-shadow effects with live preview. Copy ready-to-use CSS code.

The goal is to reduce small repetitive tasks around icons, previews, dimensions, and front-end styling.

Common use cases

  • Create a small design asset or CSS handoff for a real project.
  • Generate assets for web, mobile, and app-store workflows.
  • Create repeatable CSS values or design previews while building interfaces.

How to use it well

  1. Start in the tool area above and enter the smallest complete input that represents your task.
  2. Tune the output settings for the target platform or layout.
  3. Preview the result and make small adjustments.
  4. Download or copy the finished asset or CSS.

Practical tips

  • Start from the highest resolution source asset available.
  • Check exported dimensions against the platform requirements before publishing.
  • Keep naming consistent so generated files are easy to drop into a project.

Limitations to know

  • Generated assets may still need brand review before production use.
  • Platform requirements can change, so confirm critical app-store or marketplace specs.

Q: What is the spread radius?

A: A positive spread makes the shadow larger than the box; negative makes it smaller.

Q: What does inset do?

A: Inset shadows appear inside the element instead of outside.
