Gives text a gradient color.
```html
<p class="gradient-text">Gradient text</p>
```
```css
.gradient-text {
background: -webkit-linear-gradient(pink, red);
-webkit-text-fill-color: transparent;
-webkit-background-clip: text;
}
```
#### Explanation
1. `background: -webkit-linear-gradient(...)` gives the text element a gradient background.
2. `webkit-text-fill-color: transparent` fills the text with a transparent color.
3. `webkit-background-clip: text` clips the background with the text, filling the text with the gradient background as the color.
