How do CSS mesh gradients work without canvas or SVG?

Multiple layered `radial-gradient()` positions are blended together on a solid background with backdrop/filter blur effects for ultra-fast GPU rendering.

Can I add or reposition multiple color nodes?

Yes! You can add up to 6 custom color nodes and independently position their X/Y coordinates from 0% to 100%.
