Last Updated : 16 Jun, 2020

To create a glowing text-shadow, we will use HTML to create the structure and CSS for the styling of the text. With the help of CSS, we can add shadow to text.

HTML Code: In this section, we will design the basic structure of the code.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" 
          content="width=device-width, 
                   initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Glowing Text</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
</head>
<body>
    <h1>Hello !</h1>
    <h1>GeeksforGeeks</h1>
</body>
</html>

CSS Code: In this section, we will use some CSS property to design the Glowing text shadow. The CSS text-shadow property applies shadow to text.
The text-shadow CSS property adds shadows to text. It accepts a comma-separated list of shadows to be applied to the text and any of its decorations. Each shadow is described by some combination of X and Y offsets from the element, blur radius, and color.

body{
    background: black;
}
  
h1{
    margin-top: 150px;
    text-align: center;
    font-size: 60px;
    font-family: 'century gothic';
    color: #ffffcc;
    text-shadow: 0 0 5px #fff,
                 0 0 10px #fff, 
                 0 0 20px green, 
                 0 0 30px green, 
                 0 0 40px green, 
                 0 0 55px green, 
                 0 0 70px green;
}

Complete Code: It is the combination of above two code section.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" 
          content="width=device-width,
                   initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Glowing Text</title>
    <style>
body{
    background: black;
}
  
h1{
    margin-top: 150px;
    text-align: center;
    font-size: 60px;
    font-family: 'century gothic';
    color: #ffffcc;
    text-shadow: 0 0 5px #fff,
                 0 0 10px #fff, 
                 0 0 20px green, 
                 0 0 30px green, 
                 0 0 40px green, 
                 0 0 55px green, 
                 0 0 70px green;
}
    </style>
</head>
<body>
    <h1>Hello !</h1>
    <h1>GeeksforGeeks</h1>
</body>
