30 CSS Hover Effects

30 hand-coded CSS hover effects covering every production interactive pattern shipping today — text hover (underline draw, glitch, letter-spacing expand, gradient reveal, split text, neon glow), button hover (magnetic liquid, border draw, shimmer shine, fill wipe, 3D press, ripple), card hover (3D tilt, flip, glassmorphism, spotlight, slide reveal, stack lift), image hover (zoom-pan, color channel split, distortion, duotone, curtain reveal, Ken Burns), navigation hover (underline slide, highlight fill, strikethrough link, inline word swap), and pointer-tracking effects (cursor dot trail, magnetic pull). 24 demos are 100% pure CSS using :hover + GPU-accelerated transform / opacity transitions; 6 use ~30-60 lines of vanilla JavaScript for pointer-coordinate tracking. All respect prefers-reduced-motion, use scoped .hv-NN__* class names so multiple effects coexist on the same page without style bleed, ship INP-safe (no layout-triggering animations), MIT-licensed. Drop into React, Vue, Astro, Svelte, Rails ERB, plain HTML, or WordPress — zero framework dependencies.
