SCSS Mixin Library For Cool Link Hover Effects

Description:

When designing elements that are going to be hovered over, displaying a reaction is always a cool effect. And in 2022, you could use CSS/CSS3 for most of the fancy effects.

This is an SCSS mixin library that provides a collection of more than 36 pretty cool hover effects for links (or any elements). It’s lightweight, fast, mobile-friendly, and modular, meaning you can pick and choose exactly which mixins you need for any particular project.

How to use it:

1. Import hover effects into your stylesheet.

@import "variables";
@import "mixins";
@import "base";
//Link Styles
@import "link-styles/link";
@import "link-styles/highlight-mix-blend-mode";
@import "link-styles/highlight-background";
@import "link-styles/crossing-triangle-waves";
@import "link-styles/background-underline-slide";
@import "link-styles/multiple-background-gradients";
@import "link-styles/clip-path-effects";
@import "link-styles/transform-underline-pseudoelement";
@import "link-styles/svg-animations";
@import "link-styles/popup-text";
@import "link-styles/fire-gif-background";
//SVG Filter Styles
@import "link-styles/svg-filter";
//Multiple Element Link Styles
@import "link-styles/fill-up-transform";
@import "link-styles/cube-rotation";
@import "link-styles/split-in-half";

2. Add the following CSS classes to link elements. That’s it.

<h2>Link Effects</h2>
<a class="link link--background-underline-from-left" href="#">Slide from left</a>

3. To use SVG filter effects, you’ll need to include the SVG below with the appropriate filter.

<svg height="0" width="0" style="position: absolute;">
  <!--Don't hide this with display: none; or the filter won't show on Firefox! -->
  <filter id="turbulenceFilter" x="-20%" y="-20%" width="140%" height="140%" filterUnits="objectBoundingBox" primitiveUnits="userSpaceOnUse" color-interpolation-filters="linearRGB">
    <feTurbulence type="turbulence" baseFrequency="0.01 0.03" numOctaves="2" seed="1337" stitchTiles="noStitch" result="turbulence"/>
    <feDisplacementMap in="SourceGraphic" in2="turbulence" scale="10" xChannelSelector="G" yChannelSelector="A" result="displacementMap"/>
  </filter>
  <filter id="outlineFilter" x="-20%" y="-20%" width="140%" height="140%" filterUnits="objectBoundingBox" primitiveUnits="userSpaceOnUse" color-interpolation-filters="linearRGB">

  </filter>

    <!-- Increase the -35 to get more dust, decrease to get less.-->
    <feComposite in="colormatrix" in2="SourceAlpha" operator="in" result="composite"/>
    <feTurbulence type="turbulence" baseFrequency="0.001 0.001" numOctaves="1" seed="2" stitchTiles="stitch" result="turbulence1"/>
    <!-- Change the scale factor of the displacement map until it looks right. -->
    <feDisplacementMap in="composite" in2="turbulence1" scale="3" xChannelSelector="R" yChannelSelector="B" result="displacementMap"/>
    <!-- Set the link color below. -->
    <feFlood flood-color="#072AC8" flood-opacity="1" x="0%" y="0%" width="100%" height="100%" result="flood"/>
    <feComposite in="flood" in2="displacementMap" operator="in" x="0%" y="0%" width="100%" height="100%" result="composite1"/>
  </filter>
  <filter id="horizontalBlurFilter" x="-20%" y="-20%" width="140%" height="140%" filterUnits="objectBoundingBox" primitiveUnits="userSpaceOnUse" color-interpolation-filters="linearRGB">
    <feGaussianBlur stdDeviation="20 0" x="-20%" y="0%" width="140%" height="100%" in="SourceGraphic" edgeMode="none" result="blur"/>
    <!--Increase the 20 stdDeviation value for more blur.-->
    <!--Increase the x from -20% to 0% and decrease width to 100% to stop the link blurring over other text. -->
  </filter>
  <filter id="verticalBlurFilter" x="-20%" y="-20%" width="140%" height="140%" filterUnits="objectBoundingBox" primitiveUnits="userSpaceOnUse" color-interpolation-filters="linearRGB">
    <feGaussianBlur stdDeviation="0 5" x="-10%" y="-50%" width="120%" height="200%" in="SourceGraphic" edgeMode="none" result="blur"/>

    <feColorMatrix type="saturate" values="20" in="morphology1" result="colormatrix"/>
    <feFlood flood-color="#ffeb00" flood-opacity="1" result="flood"/>
    <feComposite in="flood" in2="SourceGraphic" operator="in" result="composite"/>
    <feComposite in="colormatrix" in2="SourceGraphic" operator="in" result="composite1"/>
    <feMerge result="merge">
      <feMergeNode in="composite" result="mergeNode"/>
      <feMergeNode in="composite1" result="mergeNode1"/>

      <feMergeNode in="composite1" result="mergeNode5"/>
      <feMergeNode in="composite1" result="mergeNode6"/>
    </feMerge>
