Create stunning glass morphism effects with professional CSS code generation
Glass morphism (also known as glassmorphism) is a modern UI design trend that creates beautiful, translucent glass-like effects. This technique uses backdrop filters, subtle shadows, and transparency to create depth and visual hierarchy in web interfaces. It's become increasingly popular in modern web design for its elegant, clean aesthetic.
Our Liquid Glass Generator takes this concept further by adding dynamic distortion effects that create a more organic, liquid-like appearance. The result is a unique visual effect that stands out from traditional flat or even standard glass morphism designs.
Use the control panel above to adjust various parameters of your glass effect:
Watch your changes take effect immediately in the preview above. The glass element is draggable, so you can position it anywhere within the preview area to see how it looks against different parts of the background image.

To implement the effect, add the glass-effect class to the main container and the glass-text class to any text content inside. This setup ensures both the glass background and the text are styled correctly. Although the glass-text is not required.
The core glass effect uses the modern CSS backdrop-filter property to blur the background behind the element. This creates the frosted glass appearance that's central to glass morphism design.
We use SVG feTurbulence and feDisplacementMap filters to create the unique liquid distortion effect. This adds organic movement and makes the effect stand out from standard glass morphism.
All effect parameters are implemented using CSS custom properties (variables), making it easy to customize and maintain consistent styling across your project.
The generated code includes vendor prefixes and Safari-specific compatibility fixes to ensure your glass effects work across all modern browsers.
Create elegant floating navigation bars that blend beautifully with background content while maintaining readability and accessibility.
.navbar { backdrop-filter: blur(10px); background: rgba(255,255,255,0.1); }
Glass morphism works excellently for modal windows and dialogs, creating focus without completely obscuring the background content.
.modal { backdrop-filter: blur(8px); border: 1px solid rgba(255,255,255,0.2); }
Transform boring card layouts into elegant glass cards that add depth and visual interest to your content sections.
.card { background: rgba(255,255,255,0.15); box-shadow: 0 8px 32px rgba(31,38,135,0.37); }
Create modern sidebar designs that feel integrated with your layout while maintaining clear content separation.
.sidebar { backdrop-filter: blur(16px); background: linear-gradient(rgba(255,255,255,0.1), rgba(255,255,255,0.05)); }
Always ensure text and interactive elements remain clearly readable over glass effects. Use sufficient contrast and consider text shadows when necessary.
Backdrop filters can be performance-intensive. Use them judiciously and test on lower-end devices. Consider simpler alternatives for complex layouts.
Ensure your glass effects don't interfere with screen readers or keyboard navigation. Provide sufficient color contrast ratios for all text.
Always provide fallback styles for browsers that don't support backdrop-filter. Your design should be functional even without the glass effect.
Adapt glass effects to match your brand colors and overall design language. The effect should enhance, not overshadow, your content.
Test glass effects thoroughly on mobile devices. Some effects may need adjustment for smaller screens or touch interfaces.
Full support for backdrop-filter since version 76. Excellent performance and rendering quality.
Support since version 103. Good performance with some minor rendering differences.
Requires -webkit- prefix. Supported since version 14. May need JavaScript fixes for SVG filters.
Full support in modern Edge (Chromium-based). Excellent compatibility and performance.
For browsers without backdrop-filter support, the generated CSS includes graceful fallbacks using semi-transparent backgrounds and traditional box-shadows. Your design will remain functional and attractive across all browsers.
