Random tiled background

I do have 5 tiles with the exact same width/height, I want to know if there is a way to set them as the background randomly.

position: relative;
background-image: url(assets/images/bg_tile1.png), url(assets/images/bg_tile2.png), url(assets/images/bg_tile3.png), url(assets/images/bg_tile4.png), url(assets/images/bg_tile5.png);
background-size: auto;
background-repeat: repeat;

This is waht i have so far, how could I repeat them randomly? Like if they are in a grid (random):

1 4 2 1

2 3 4 1

3 1 5 5

Solution

You can approximate this using SVG. You build a random pattern that will repeat. It won't be completely random but it's a good approximation.

Here is an example with a 3x3 pattern:

svg {
  position: fixed;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  right: 0;
  bottom: 0;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
}
