CSS Wave Divider Generator

An SVG wave for section dividers -- smooth or zigzag, multiple crests, solid or gradient fill, optional layered parallax waves, presets, randomize, and export as SVG, React, an HTML embed, or a CSS background-image.

What this tool does

Builds a section-divider wave as inline SVG — the shape used to break up flat section boundaries on a landing page — with full control over its shape, fill, and depth, exportable in whichever format actually fits the project.

Shape controls

Smooth (curved) or zigzag (angular) wave type, 1 to 6 crests, and an adjustable height cover the wave's basic silhouette. A flip toggle mirrors it vertically for use as a top divider instead of a bottom one, without redrawing anything.

Fill and layered depth

Fill as a solid colour or a two-colour gradient at any angle. Turning on layered parallax waves stacks 2 to 4 waves at different heights, crest counts, and opacities behind the front one — the classic layered-wave depth effect seen on many landing pages, generated automatically rather than hand-drawn as separate SVGs.

Presets and randomizing

Five presets — Gentle Wave, Rolling Hills, Choppy Zigzag, Sharp Peaks, and Layered Depth — cover common looks, plus a randomize button for quick exploration.

Getting it out in the right format

Export as raw SVG markup, a React component, an HTML <img> embed using a data URI, or a CSS background-image declaration — whichever fits how the divider will actually be used, copyable with one click.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is my data uploaded anywhere?
No. The wave is built and rendered entirely in the browser -- nothing is sent to a server.
Can the same wave be used as both a top and bottom divider?
Yes -- the flip toggle mirrors it vertically, so one shape works as a bottom divider normally and a top divider flipped, without redrawing it.
What does the layered parallax option do?
It stacks 2 to 4 waves behind the front one, each with a different height, crest count, and opacity, producing the layered-depth look common on landing pages automatically instead of by hand-drawing separate SVGs.
What's the difference between smooth and zigzag?
Smooth uses curved Bezier segments between crests for a rolling wave; zigzag uses straight angled segments instead for a sharper, more geometric divider.
What export formats are available?
Raw SVG markup, a React component, an HTML img embed using a data URI, or a CSS background-image declaration -- whichever fits how the divider will actually be used in the project.
What presets are available?
Gentle Wave, Rolling Hills, Choppy Zigzag, Sharp Peaks, and Layered Depth -- each sets the wave type, crest count, height, and layering together for a specific look.
