How to create a gradient background layer in MapboxGL?


How t Is there any way to create a gradient background in mapboxGL JS or Studio? There is a prop for linear gradient, but I can't find any information about polygonal gradient. As a background layer or a polygon from -90 to 90. Is there any way to create a gradient background in mapboxGL JS or Studio?

    map.on('load', function () {  
        // Add a source for the polygon area  
        map.addSource('gradient-source', {  
            'type': 'geojson',  
            'data': {

                                [-180, 90],  
                                [-180, -90]  
                            ]]  
                        }  
                    }  
                ]  
            }  
        });  
    
        // Add the background layer with a gradient effect using multiple layers  
        const colors = ['#ff0000', '#00ff00', '#0000ff']; // Replace with your gradient colors  
    
        colors.forEach((color, index) => {  
            map.addLayer({  
                'id': `polygon-gradient-${index}`,  
                'type': 'fill',  
                'source': 'gradient-source',  
                'layout': {},  
                'paint': {  
                    'fill-color': color,  
                    'fill-opacity': 1 - (index / colors.length)
                }  
            });  
    
        });  
    
    });  
    
    
    
    
    
    
    // you can also crate a gradient image or use libriers likx D3.js
