Add An Animated Sidebar To Your Product Image with Html5 and CSS3

A simple, animated, vertical product sidebar with action buttons when hover, built on top of Html5 and CSS3/SCSS.

How to use it:

Insert an product image into your web page using Html5 <figure>.

<figure>
  <img src="demo.jpg" alt="Alt" class="product-image">
</figure>

Create the Html for a hidden sidebar containing action buttons for this product image.

<div class="product-sidebar">
  <button class="buy"> <span>BUY ITEM</span> </button>
  <button class="info"> <span>MORE INFO</span> </button>
  <button class="size"> <span>SIZES</span> </button>
  <button class="colors">
    <span>
      <a href="" class="color black"></a>
      <a href="" class="color white"></a>
      <a href="" class="color red"></a>
    </span>
  </button>
</div>

Wrap the image & sidebar containers in a wrapper container.

<div class="product">
  ...
</div>

The required CSS to style the product sidebar and animate & reveal it when you hover over the product image. Feel free to tweak and override the CSS  to create your own style.
