Swipe to Reveal Actions Hover
An inbox row that slides left on hover to uncover snooze and archive buttons, like a swipe on a phone. The actions sit behind the row and pop in a beat after it moves.
Also known as: swipe to delete css, list item swipe hint, reveal actions behind row.

}Customizing this snippet
- Color: set
--hfx-coloron the element or a parent. Currently previewing#3b82f6. - Base size: set
--hfx-size. Every other dimension is inem, so the whole thing scales together. Currently previewing16px. - Speed: change the duration on the
transitionoranimationshorthand. 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.
