CSS Button Generator: Visual Editor for Modern Button Styles

Buttons are the most-tweaked element on any website. This generator lets you visually adjust padding, colors, border-radius, hover states, and shadows — then exports clean CSS.

Modern button design has a few standard variants: solid (primary action), outlined (secondary), ghost (tertiary). Each needs hover, focus, and active states. Getting all the spacing and colors right by hand is tedious — a visual editor with live preview saves time.

Button design checklist

•Padding: 8–12px vertical, 16–24px horizontal
•Border-radius: 4–8px (or fully rounded for pill-style)
•Hover state: slight darkening (10–15%) or shadow lift
•Focus state: visible outline for keyboard users
•Disabled state: 50% opacity
•Minimum 44×44 px touch target on mobile

Extended FAQ

Should I use Tailwind classes instead of custom CSS?

Both work. Tailwind is faster for prototyping; custom CSS gives more control. The generator outputs raw CSS so you can adapt either way.

Are my designs stored?

No — runs entirely in your browser.
