CSS Hover Effects.
We going to make four hover effects. Its simple to make it.
Create one folder and open it in you code editor and create two files with .html & .css extension. Then link that css file with html file. And create basic structure of html. See below code.
HTML
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>Document</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="index.css">
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
CSS
* {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
font-family: sans-serif;
}
body {
width: 100%;
height: 100vh;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
background-color: #1e1e1e;
}
Styling in body tag is to make inside element in center horizontally and vertically.
Now let’s create all hover effects one by one. We just change css for different hover effects. And remain the html code as it is.
Let’s first create HTML for button.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="index.css">
</head>
<body>
<div class="box">
<button type="button">Button

<span class="span2"></span>
<span class="span3"></span>
<span class="span4"></span>
</button>
</div>
</body>
</html>
