# radialGradient(_:center:startRadius:endRadius:options:)

Returns a shading instance that fills a radial gradient.

## Declaration

```swift
static func radialGradient(_ gradient: AnyGradient, center: CGPoint, startRadius: CGFloat, endRadius: CGFloat, options: GraphicsContext.GradientOptions = GradientOptions()) -> GraphicsContext.Shading
```

## Parameters

- `gradient`: An doc://com.apple.SwiftUI/documentation/SwiftUI/AnyGradient instance that defines the colors of the gradient.
- `center`: The point in the current user space on which SwiftUI centers the gradient.
- `startRadius`: The distance from the center where the gradient starts.
- `endRadius`: The distance from the center where the gradient ends.
- `options`: Options that you use to configure the gradient.

## Return Value
