Get tired searching animations for your menu items and links? Search no more! Here is a list of more than 100 different animations. From the simple one to the more complex one, you will for sure find what you want.
No SVG, No JS, No extra tag, No pseudo element, No keyframes ... All of them are done using backgrounds, transition and only one element. Simply add a class and enjoy.
I am not relying on pseudo element so you can easily use them with elements like input
(where we cannot have pseudo element).
In order to understand the logic of each animation, I highly recommend my previous article about background-position

unit
The Fancy
(2) and (5) use some hardcoded values that need to be adjusted based on the element width
The Inverted
The below doesn't work on Firefox due to a known bug
The 3D
Warning: the below uses some advanced CSS but I considered CSS variables to make it easy to control
That's it!
