<p>Everyone can appreciate fancy, animated buttons - but often times they come with a performance cost: <em>JavaScript</em>. Luckily for us, we can create our very own shiny, animated buttons with pure CSS.</p>

<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>
