First release

Gradiente v1.0.1

Initial public release of Gradiente — a lightweight gradient engine for parsing CSS gradients into normalized data structures.

---

✨ What’s included

• Linear gradients (linear-gradient)
• Radial gradients (radial-gradient)
• Conic gradients (conic-gradient)
• Full support for repeating variants
• Automatic stop normalization
• Repeating gradient expansion into real stop data

---

🚀 Example

import { parse } from 'gradiente';

const gradient = parse('repeating-linear-gradient(red 10%, blue 20%)');

↓

[
  { color: 'red',  position: 0.1 },
  { color: 'blue', position: 0.2 },
  { color: 'red',  position: 0.3 },
  { color: 'blue', position: 0.4 },
  ...
]

🧠 Key idea

Gradiente transforms gradients from:

linear-gradient(...)

into a clean, predictable data model that can be used directly in:

• Canvas
• WebGL
• Pixi
• Konva
• visual editors and design tools

---

📦 Install

npm install gradiente

---

🎯 Why Gradiente

Most libraries treat gradients as strings.

Gradiente treats them as data structures.
