Controlled box-shadow generator (incl. inset)

Run in browser

Inputs and parameters

Real example

inset=inset, offsetX=2, offsetY=4, blur=8, spread=0, color=#17211c
→ box-shadow: inset 2px 4px 8px 0px #17211c;

Limits and failure handling

Single-layer box-shadow only, integer px, bounded ranges and controlled colours; no multi-layer shadows, calc()/var(), arbitrary CSS or text-shadow. Colour alpha is supported via 8-digit HEX and rgba()/hsla().

FAQ

How is inset expressed?

Choosing inset prefixes the serialization with the inset keyword; outset omits it. Boolean true/false is also accepted; other strings raise INVALID_INSET.

Can I stack multiple shadows?

This release generates a single shadow only; comma-separated multi-layer values are not supported, keeping the grammar controlled and testable.

What about ranges and decimals?

Offsets/spread are -100..100 integers and blur 0..100 integers; out-of-range raises OUT_OF_RANGE and decimals raise INVALID_NUMBER instead of being silently rounded.
