How to get a rotated linear gradient svg for use as a background image?

Question

To rotate the gradient you can e.g use the ‘gradientTransform’ attribute, like this:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="100%" height="100%" 
 viewBox="0 0 1 1" preserveAspectRatio="none">
  <linearGradient id="grad-ucgg-generated" gradientUnits="userSpaceOnUse" 
   x1="0%" y1="0%" x2="100%" y2="0%" gradientTransform="rotate(65)">
    <stop offset="0%" stop-color="#ffffff" stop-opacity="0"/>
    <stop offset="100%" stop-color="#ff0000" stop-opacity="1"/>
  </linearGradient>
  <rect x="0" y="0" width="1" height="1" fill="url(#grad-ucgg-generated)" />
</svg>
