Design layered CSS box shadows with a live preview and copy the generated box-shadow declaration.

What does it do?

Design layered CSS box shadows with a live preview and copy the generated box-shadow declaration.

How does it work?

SiteIndex builds a box-shadow declaration from your offset, blur, spread, color, and inset settings, and updates a live preview card as you adjust each value.

When to use it
  • Design a card or button shadow that matches a design system.
  • Preview an inset shadow before adding it to a component.
  • Copy production-ready CSS without hand-tuning shadow values.
Inputs and outputs
Input
Text, files, or values entered in the browser, depending on the tool.
Output
A result shown in the browser that can be reviewed or copied where supported.
Limitations
  • Shadows are visual effects, not reliable focus indicators by themselves. Check contrast and clipping in the actual layout.
Privacy and data handling

Inputs for this browser-side tool are processed locally and are not sent to SiteIndex. Normal page analytics may still be collected as described in the Privacy Policy. Read the Privacy Policy.

How to use it

  1. Adjust the offset, blur, spread, color, and opacity for a layer.
  2. Add or remove layers and choose inset where needed.
  3. Copy the CSS and verify the shadow around the actual component.
