Extruded Outline
Outline & Stroke · Static · pure CSS
Hollow letters pushed into 3D by a stacked offset shadow in a deeper shade, so the outline itself reads as a chunky block.
How it works
Extruded Outline is a static outline & stroke text effect rendered entirely in CSS. It works on a single element — just add the .text-effect class, with no extra HTML.
Controls
Extruded Outline exposes 3 dedicated controls — Hue, Stroke and Depth — on top of the shared type controls (font, weight, letter-spacing and case). Open it in the generator to tune every value live, then copy the updated CSS.
CSS
/* Extruded Outline — generated with TEXT-FX
* HTML: just put the class on any element.
* Font: 'Bricolage Grotesque', sans-serif (load from Google Fonts).
*/
.text-effect {
font-family: 'Bricolage Grotesque', sans-serif;
font-weight: 700;
letter-spacing: 8px;
text-transform: none;
}

color: transparent;

}
