7 CSS Box-Shadow Hover Effects for Buttons

Simple hover effects with box-shadow: a pure CSS snippet that adds seven polished button animations with zero JavaScript.

Key highlights:

• Fill, Pulse, Close, Raise, Fill Up, Slide, and Offset effects
• Powered by CSS box-shadow inset + spread radius animation
• Fully themed via CSS custom properties (--color, --hover)
• Keyboard-accessible — :focus states included out of the box

If you're building UI buttons and want interaction feedback that goes beyond a basic color change, this is worth a look.
