Follow these simple steps to get instant, accurate results directly in your browser:
Use sliders to modify horizontal offset, vertical offset, blur, and spread.

Click 'Copy CSS' to grab the box-shadow property or Tailwind utility class.
The Box Shadow Generator is an interactive visual CSS utility for designing single-layer and multi-layered CSS box shadows with live preview on cards and buttons.
Standard CSS box-shadow properties require configuring horizontal offset (X), vertical offset (Y), blur radius, spread radius, and shadow color/opacity (rgba). By combining multiple subtle shadow layers, designers can achieve realistic, smooth elevation effects (neumorphic and material design shadows) that look far superior to single harsh shadows.
Frontend engineers can tweak sliders visually and copy clean CSS rules for vanilla CSS, Tailwind CSS, or CSS-in-JS configurations.
Stack multiple shadow layers for soft, photorealistic elevation effects.
Easily toggle between outer shadows and inner (inset) debossed shadows.
Preview shadows across custom background colors and card styles.
Copy standard CSS declarations or custom Tailwind arbitrary values.
Create layered, realistic depth for UI cards, popups, and dropdown menus.
Design subtle resting shadows and raised hover states for interactive buttons.
Formulate consistent elevation levels (sm, md, lg, xl) for your brand UI kit.
