As we can animate width smoothly in CSS, creating a sliding background animation on a link is a breeze, please see below:
Example
ButtonHTML
<a href="#" class="button-slide">Button</a>
CSS
.button-slide {
display: inline-block;
text-decoration: none;
padding: 1em 1.5em;
background: none;
color: #000;
font-weight: bold;
position: relative;
transition: color 0.25s ease;
border: 3px solid #000;
}
.button-slide:hover {
color: #fff;
}
.button-slide::after {
position: absolute;
content: "";
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 0;
height: 100%;
background-color: #000;
transition: width 0.2s ease;
z-index: -1;
}
.button-slide:hover::after {
width: 100%;
}
