How to use CSS Glitch Effect Generator

  1. Type or paste your sample text.
  2. Adjust the intensity slider to control the glitch offset.
  3. Choose between pseudo-element or text-shadow rendering method. Copy the CSS.

What is CSS Glitch Effect Generator?

The glitch effect mimics analog video distortion by splitting color channels (cyan and magenta shifts). This tool generates pure CSS that produces the effect using either the pseudo-element method (cleaner) or text-shadow method (wider browser support).

Configure the cyan and magenta channel offsets, overall intensity, animation speed, and text color. Toggle animation on or off, and switch between rendering methods for maximum compatibility.

FAQ

Which method should I use?
The pseudo-element method produces cleaner results. Use text-shadow method if you need broader browser support.
Can I use this on non-text elements?
The text-shadow method works on any element. The pseudo-element method requires the data-text attribute.
