How do I get a seamless pattern background?
Choose a pattern type, set **Size** (that’s the tile size), then tweak **Thickness** and **Angle** where available. The preview shows a repeating tile. Click **Copy** to grab a CSS
background-image: url('data:image/svg+xml;utf8,...') you can paste straight into your stylesheet.
Dots vs stripes vs grid — when should I use which?
**Dots** are gentle and work well for empty states. **Stripes** (especially diagonal) suggest motion or caution. **Grid/crosshatch** is great for subtle texture behind data. **Checks** give a classic, structured look. Try small sizes for quiet backgrounds; larger tiles feel more graphic.
Is the output vector?
Yes. The tool generates an **SVG** tile. You can copy the raw markup, download the file, or use it as a data‑URL in CSS. SVG scales cleanly and stays tiny in file size.
Can I pick colors from my screen?
If your browser supports the EyeDropper API, you can sample colors anywhere on your screen. I kept the UI minimal here, but if you’d like a dedicated eyedropper button, say the word and I’ll add it.
What’s a good starting point for subtle patterns?
Keep **Size** around **24–48px**, **Thickness** between **2–6**, and pick low‑contrast colors (e.g., text color at 6–12% opacity over your background tone). Your UI will get texture without stealing focus.
Will this work in Tailwind, React, or plain CSS?
Absolutely. The copied CSS is framework‑agnostic. In Tailwind, you can place the data‑URL inside
bg-[url('...')]. In React, drop it into a style prop or a CSS module.
