## About

Aura provides a curated set of soft, atmospheric ambient gradients constructed using CSS layered blend modes. Designed to be easily integrated as backgrounds into digital interfaces, the collection includes predefined color schemes like Sunrise Drift, Golden Hour, and Midnight Sapphire. Each gradient utilizes multi-stop transitions and subtle grain or blur effects to create depth, simulating natural light and fluid color interactions for modern web applications.
