Luckily for us, we can create our very own shiny, animated buttons with pure CSS.</p> +<h2 id="the-demo">The Demo</h2> +<p><img src="/public/images/shiny-buttons.png" alt="Four buttons that shine when hovered" /></p> +<p><a href="https://codepen.io/bradleytaunt/pen/oNBQevj">Live CodePen Example</a></p> +<h2 id="the-html">The HTML</h2> +<p>Nothing fancy going on here, just a set of <code>ahref</code> elements with specific <code>button</code> classes added:</p> +<pre><code><a href="#" class="button green"><span>Green Button</span></a> +<a href="#" class="button blue"><span>Blue Button</span></a> +<a href="#" class="button orange"><span>Orange Button</span></a> +<a href="#" class="button purple"><span>Purple Button</span></a> +</code></pre> +<h2 id="the-css">The CSS</h2> +<p>First we set the default base styling for all the buttons. We also place the inner text into <code>span</code> elements (I will explain why in a little bit):</p> +<pre><code>.button { + background: white; + border: 1px solid #a5b1c2; + border-radius: 6px; + box-shadow: 0 4px 8px rgba(0,0,0,0.1); + color: #111111; + display: inline-block; + margin: 1rem auto; + min-width: 180px; + overflow: hidden; + padding: 15px 30px; + position: relative; + text-align: center; + text-decoration: none; + transition: .3s ease-in-out all; +} +.button span { + position: relative; + z-index: 2; +} +</code></pre> +<p>Now we need to create our <em>shiny</em> element that will pass across the button on <code>hover</code> or <code>focus</code>. For this object we will use the <code>before</code> pseudo element:</p> +<pre><code>.button:before { + background: linear-gradient(transparent 0%, rgba(255,255,255,0.6) 50%, transparent 100%); + content:''; + height: 200%; + position: absolute; + right: calc(100% + 20px); + top: -55%; + transform: rotate(-70deg); + transition: .6s ease-in-out right; + width: 80px; + z-index: 0; +} +</code></pre> +<p>Next, we tell the <code>before</code> element to swipe across the main <code>.button</code> parent element when the user hovers or focuses on it. Remember placing our inner content into a <code>span</code> element? That insures that our shiny/swipe element doesn’t position itself <em>over</em> the text, but instead flows under it:</p> +<pre><code>.button:hover:before { + right: -100%; +} +/* Extra visual styling for buttons on hover - optional */ +.button:hover, button:focus { + box-shadow: 0 8px 12px rgba(0,0,0,0.1), inset 0 10px 30px rgba(255,255,255,0.3), inset 0 2px 2px rgba(255,255,255,0.2); + color: white; +} +</code></pre> +<p>All that’s left is adding some visual flare to each individual button - in this case background-color and border-color:</p> +<pre><code>.button.green:hover, button.green:focus { background: #20bf6b; border-color: #20bf6b; } +.button.blue:hover, button.blue:focus { background: #0984e3; border-color: #0984e3; } +.button.orange:hover, button.orange:focus { background: #ff793f; border-color: #ff793f; } +.button.purple:hover, button.purple:focus { background: #6c5ce7; border-color: #6c5ce7; } +</code></pre> +<h2 id="browser-support">Browser Support</h2> +<p>These buttons work across all browsers flawlessly.
