Hover Effect
Hover effects are visual or behavioral changes that occur on a website when a user moves their mouse pointer over an interactive element, like a button or image.
Hover is an easy way to make a design feel more dynamic and engaging. If the appearance of an element changes while hovering, most users understand that this is somehow an interactive element, and they will try to click it in most cases.
Hover effects provide a visual appeal, adding depth and dimension to a web page, as well as a means to highlight and draw attention to specific elements.
