Cursor Hover Reveal: CSS Keyframe Animation

Cursor Hover Reveal

An arrow cursor glides in on a curve and slows onto a toolbar button. The button's hover fill lights, a tooltip rises in after a beat, then the cursor drifts off and the tooltip leaves faster.

Also known as: cursor animation css, product tour cursor, hover tooltip demo animation, animated mouse pointer.

Customizing this snippet

Color: set --kfa-color on the element or a parent. Currently previewing #3b82f6.
Base size: set --kfa-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.
