Show additional content on hover css Code Snippet in 2025

Creates a card that displays additional content on hover.

• Use overflow: hidden on the card to hide elements that overflow vertically.
• Use the :hover and :focus-within pseudo-class selectors to change the card's styling if the element is hovered, focused or any of its descendants are focused.
• Set transition: 0.3s ease all to create a transition effect on hover/focus.
