CSS Text Shadow

1 min read

Text Shadow #

The text-shadow property adds shadow to text.

In its simplest use, you only specify the horizontal shadow (2px) and the vertical shadow (2px):

Text shadow effect! #

h1 { text-shadow: 2px 2px; }

Next, add a color (red) to the shadow:

Text shadow effect! #

h1 { text-shadow: 2px 2px red; }

Then, add a blur effect (5px) to the shadow:

Text shadow effect! #

h1 { text-shadow: 2px 2px 5px red; }
