How to Use This Tool
-
Create beautiful material design ripple effects with our comprehensive ripple effect generator. This powerful tool helps you add interactive feedback to buttons, cards, and UI elements with perfect CSS and JavaScript code.
Step 1: Configure Ripple Properties
Set your ripple color using the color picker or toggle "Use BG" to automatically match your element's background. Adjust opacity (0.1-1.0) for transparency control. Set ripple size (50-300%) relative to your element.
Step 2: Customize Animation
Control animation duration (100-2000ms) for fast or slow ripple spreads. Choose timing functions: Ease, Ease In, Ease Out, Ease In Out, Linear, or custom Cubic Bezier curves for precise motion control.
Step 3: Choose Ripple Style
Select between Fill (solid color ripple) or Outline (ring-style ripple) effects. Set ripple origin: Center (expands from middle) or Click Position (expands from mouse click point).
Step 4: Configure Target Element
Choose element type: Button, Card, Div, Image, or enter a custom CSS selector. Set element background color, text color, and button text. Adjust element width (50-300px) and height (30-200px) for perfect proportions.
Step 5: Preview and Test
View static previews or switch to interactive mode to test ripple effects directly. Use the "Trigger Ripple" button to manually activate the effect without clicking the element.
Step 6: Export Your Code
Copy clean CSS code for styling and JavaScript code for functionality. Export complete configuration settings for future use. All code is production-ready with cross-browser compatibility.
