Info concerning gradients : https://docs.gimp.org/2.10/en/gimp-tool-gradient.html
Easy workflow to make a one color gradient :
Make a new white layer
Make sure to add an alpha channel to the layer (if not)
Use the gradient tool to make a gradient on that layer (foreground / background color different)
Then : Colours / Colour to Alpha
Result is a layer with color to transparent.
For using this layer on a picture use the 'Pen Light' or 'Hard Light' layer mode.
