Hover.dev
Explore interaction treatments with visible code examples.
Understand the resource
What it is.
Hover.dev provides animated components and templates for React, Tailwind CSS and Motion. Its library spans small controls and larger sections, so first decide which interaction actually needs emphasis.
When it is useful
A button or navigation state needs clearer feedback within an existing interface.
A proposed application
Put it to work.
This example illustrates a possible use. The proposed workflow and expected result are separate from the bounded checks recorded below.
Try this
Adapt one hover treatment to focus-visible and touch states, then verify that the action still reads as a button.
Result to aim for
One consistent feedback pattern across input methods.
Before you start
What you need.
- A compatible frontend stack and a defined interaction to improve.
The practical boundaries
What to watch for.
- Hover alone cannot communicate essential information to keyboard or touch users.
- Effects may need additional dependencies and reduced-motion behavior; public examples were reviewed without installation.
Review record
What we could establish.
- Public primary documentation and the bounded account-free checks below were reviewed. The public CODE control revealed two code blocks. The test confirmed access to example code, not the behavior of a copied component.
The source-review notes describe documentation and identity. The account-free evaluation below records exactly which public interaction or local fixture was checked, what happened, and what remains untested.
Check current access, terms, licensing and data handling before using a resource with your own material.
Runtime and security evaluation
What the evaluation covers.
The public CODE control revealed two code blocks. The test confirmed access to example code, not the behavior of a copied component.
Methods: Public HTTP response · Public browser sample. A completed check covers the stated sample; it is not a safety certification.
- Target
- https://www.hover.dev/
- Version or capture
- Unversioned public page checked 2026-10-19
- Integrity scope
- sha256:1df48d9173a5bf24e783a5d852607d25cd5e904c0e4ba0cee788322728d69d06
Test conditions
- Chromium 155.0.8059.82 on Windows; fresh temporary profile and fresh account-free contexts.
- Public HTTPS GET/HEAD requests only; telemetry/auth routes and WebSockets blocked. No account storage or credential environment variables.
Individual checks and observations
Public document and DOM
passPublic browser sample: Fresh Chromium GET, then inspect rendered controls after hydration delay
Observed: HTTP 200; 18 captured button labels; 1 inputs; 0 canvases.
Component code disclosure
passPublic browser sample: Open the public CODE tab of the visible example
Observed: 2 visible preformatted code blocks. No paid component accessed.
Security findings and boundaries
Passive inspection of the public response headers, requested hosts and the named browser sample. No active exploitation, authenticated permissions test or complete security audit.
Practical advice · caution
Example code remains application code
Reading a demo does not inspect every event handler, dependency or external endpoint that a copied component could use.
Practical caveats
- Review the exact snippet and keep essential button or navigation feedback available to keyboard and touch users.
- Pin and recheck the selected version or sample before adoption; the observations apply only to the scope and date shown.
What remains untested
- No paid content, local component execution, cross-browser interaction or performance measurement.
- Fresh-browser restrictions can affect external assets and hydration. Initial failed selectors and limited probes remain in the evidence; they are not blanket product failures.
Security limits
- No authenticated workspace, private content, production backend permissions or data-retention verification.
- No paid content, local component execution, cross-browser interaction or performance measurement.
