Push Hover Effect

A quick press on hover: the button dips to 85% and springs back as if tapped, then keeps a light tint while hovered. The keyframe has only a 50% stop, so it returns to rest on its own.

Also known as: hvr-push, button press on hover, tap animation css.

HTML

<button class="hfx-push"><svg viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" aria-hidden="true"><path d="M12 5v14M5 12h14"/></svg>Add to list</button>

CSS

.hfx-push {
  --c: var(--hfx-color, #3b82f6);
  display: inline-flex;
  align-items: center;
  gap: 0.5em;
  padding: 0.7em 1.6em;
  border-radius: 0.5em;
  font: 600 var(--hfx-size, 16px) system-ui, sans-serif;

.hfx-push:is(:hover, :focus-visible) {
  background: color-mix(in srgb, var(--c) 14%, transparent);

}
@keyframes hfx-push-press {
  50% { transform: scale(0.85); }
}

@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce) {
  .hfx-push, .hfx-push *, .hfx-push::before, .hfx-push::after, .hfx-push *::before, .hfx-push *::after {

Customizing this snippet

  • Color: set --hfx-color on the element or a parent. Currently previewing #3b82f6.
  • Base size: set --hfx-size. Every other dimension is in em, so the whole thing scales together. Currently previewing 16px.
  • Speed: change the duration on the transition or animation shorthand. Staggered delays are relative, so they keep their rhythm.
  • Reduced motion: the rule at the end of the CSS turns the motion off for people who asked their OS for less of it. Keep it.
