What Is a Shape Generator?
The Random Shape Generator instantly creates geometric shapes with SVG previews, letting you experiment with structure, color, and style in seconds. Designers, developers, artists, and educators use it to prototype layouts, build creative references, and teach geometry.
Generate circles, rectangles, triangles, polygons, and stars with customizable colors, opacity, and styling options.
How Do You Use the Shape Generator?
- Choose Shape Type: Stay fully random or select specific shapes.
- Select Color Mode: Use random colors, gradients, or pick custom colors.
- Adjust Styling: Set stroke width, opacity, and optional effects.
- Set Quantity: Generate up to 10 shapes at once.
- Copy SVG: Copy the clean SVG code for use in your projects.

FAQ
What types of shapes can I generate?
You can generate circles, rectangles, triangles, polygons, and various other 2D shapes. Each shape is rendered as SVG for scalability and web compatibility.
Can I customize the colors?
