Frequently Asked Questions
What is glassmorphism?
Glassmorphism is a design trend featuring translucent, frosted-glass-like elements with background blur effects. It creates depth and visual hierarchy using CSS backdrop-filter, transparency, and subtle borders to achieve a modern, layered UI aesthetic.
How does backdrop-filter work?
The CSS backdrop-filter property applies visual effects (like blur or color shifts) to the area behind an element. Combined with a semi-transparent background, it creates the signature frosted glass effect of glassmorphism.
Is glassmorphism supported in all browsers?
Backdrop-filter is supported in Chrome, Edge, Firefox 103+, Safari, and Opera. Internet Explorer lacks support. For Safari and iOS Safari, use the -webkit-backdrop-filter prefix. This generator includes fallbacks for unsupported browsers.
What makes a good glassmorphism design?
Effective glassmorphism needs: a colorful or image background to show through, moderate blur (10-20px), subtle transparency (20-40% opacity), thin light borders for edge definition, and gentle shadows for depth. The background content should remain visible but softened.
