Fluid Typography Generator

Fluid typography uses CSS clamp() to scale font size smoothly between a minimum and maximum as the viewport width changes — no breakpoints or media queries needed. This generator also supports a gradient text effect. Building a full multi-step type scale (h1–h6, body, caption) instead of one font size? Try the dedicated CSS clamp() type-scale generator.

How to use the Fluid Typography Generator

  1. Set the min and max font size. Choose the smallest and largest size the text should render at.
  2. Set the viewport range. Choose the min and max viewport width the size scales between.
  3. Pick a weight and optional gradient. Set the font weight, and optionally enable a two-color gradient text effect.
  4. Copy the CSS. Copy the generated clamp()-based font-size CSS.

Frequently asked questions

How does CSS clamp() create fluid typography?

font-size: clamp(min, preferred, max) locks the font size between a minimum and maximum, scaling smoothly with the preferred value (usually a viewport-width unit) in between — no media query breakpoints needed.

What's the difference between this and a full type scale generator?

This tool generates one fluid font size at a time with a live preview and optional gradient text; the dedicated clamp.ignlab.net tool is built specifically for generating a complete, consistent h1–h6/body type scale in one pass.

How do I create gradient text in CSS?

Set a linear-gradient as background-image, then background-clip: text and color: transparent — this generator builds that combination for you when you enable the gradient option.

What are good min/max font sizes for a heading?

A common H1 range is roughly 32px (mobile) to 56–64px (desktop); body text is usually far narrower, e.g. 16px to 18px.

Can I export the typography styles as Tailwind classes?

Yes. Toggle Tailwind mode to get the closest matching Tailwind text-size utility classes instead of raw CSS.

Is this fluid typography generator free?

Yes — completely free with no sign-up, and it runs entirely in your browser.
