In Adobe Photoshop, a "gradient" refers to a tool that allows you to create a smooth transition between multiple colors, essentially creating a gradual blend of color across a selected area within an image, giving the effect of a smooth fade from one color to another; you can use preset gradients or customize your own color combinations with the Gradient tool.
