Generate beautiful animated buttons with Tailwind CSS, pure CSS, or React. Customize text, color, radius, and hover animations, then copy ready-to-use code instantly.
Writing hover animations from scratch is repetitive. Getting the transition timing, easing curves, and transform values right takes iteration.
This generator handles that and lets you focus on design decisions instead: pick a preset like Stripe-ish, Notion Minimal, or Cyberpunk to start from a known-good look, or dial in your own background, gradient, shadow, and radius. The React + Tailwind, Vue + Tailwind, and HTML + Tailwind exports ship with a visible focus ring baked into the class list for keyboard navigation - accessibility that's easy to forget when writing this CSS by hand.
The React + Styled-Components and React + CSS Modules exports don't include that focus state automatically.
An animated button generator saves frontend developers and designers hours of CSS trial and error. Start from one of 8 named design presets or build from scratch, choose from 9 hover animations, and export ready-to-use code for React, Vue, styled-components, CSS Modules, or plain HTML with Tailwind.
Type the label you want to display on your button.
Choose button color, border radius, and animation style.
Select hover effects like scale, lift, or glow animation.

}Notice the focus:outline-none focus:ring-2 focus:ring-offset-2 focus:ring-green-400 classes near the start - that visible focus ring is baked into every React + Tailwind, Vue + Tailwind, and HTML + Tailwind export automatically. The disabled prop is wired to isLoading, so passing isLoading swaps the label for a spinner and disables clicks.

</button>The HTML + Tailwind export is fully static - there's no isLoading wiring at all, since plain HTML has no state. The shine sweep is a separate absolutely-positioned div animated with a CSS transform, not a JavaScript animation.
Configure color, radius, shadow, and a hover animation visually, then copy working code instead of hand-tuning transition timing and easing curves.
Start from a preset close to your target look - Stripe-ish, SaaS Shine, Soft UI, and the rest - then adjust colors, radius, and shadow to match your brand instead of building the CSS from a blank file.
Switch export format without losing your current design - useful for checking which code style fits your project before committing to one.
Pick an animation like Lift or Glitch and inspect the exact Tailwind classes or CSS it generates, rather than guessing at transform and transition values.
Problem
Solution
Only React + Tailwind and Vue + Tailwind wire the disabled/loading state into the generated code automatically. HTML + Tailwind exports a static button with no loading logic, and React + Styled-Components expects you to pass a disabled prop yourself.
Problem
Solution
Unlike the other four formats, React + CSS Modules currently exports a partial .module.css snippet, not a full button component - see Limitations below before choosing it.
Problem
Solution
The React + Tailwind, Vue + Tailwind, and HTML + Tailwind exports rely on Tailwind utility classes, including arbitrary-value classes like bg-[#635bff] - they render as unstyled buttons in a project without Tailwind set up.
Problem
Solution
Turning on Loading State doesn't just replace the label with a spinner in the React + Tailwind and Vue + Tailwind exports - it also sets disabled to true, so the button stops firing clicks while it's on.
React + Tailwind, Vue + Tailwind, and HTML + Tailwind bake a visible focus ring into the class list automatically. If you export React + Styled-Components or React + CSS Modules, add your own focus-visible style.
Scale, Lift, Elastic, Jelly, Glitch, and Pulse animate transform or opacity, which the browser composites cheaply. 3D Press changes border-bottom-width on click, and Lift/Neon Glow add a box-shadow change - both are still light for a single button, but worth knowing at larger scale.
Paste the HTML + Tailwind output there to see the hover animation render immediately, without creating a file in your project first.
This format currently outputs only a .module.css fragment with background, color, and border - it doesn't include the JSX/HTML wiring, the animation classes, or a complete stylesheet the other four formats provide.
The tool's own live preview sets these attributes on its button while the loading state is on, but the code you copy only wires a plain disabled prop (React + Tailwind, Vue + Tailwind) - add aria-busy/aria-disabled yourself if your project needs to communicate the loading state to assistive technology.
Each animation uses a fixed transition duration and easing curve baked into the preset - there's no slider to adjust timing or easing beyond picking a different animation.
React + Tailwind, Vue + Tailwind, and HTML + Tailwind share the same generated class list and behavior. React + Styled-Components and React + CSS Modules are built separately and don't inherit those same defaults.
| React + Tailwind, Vue + Tailwind, HTML + Tailwind | React + Styled-Components, React + CSS Modules | |
|---|---|---|
| Focus ring included? | Yes - baked into every Tailwind-based export | No - add a focus state yourself |
| Loading state wiring | React + Tailwind and Vue + Tailwind wire disabled to isLoading; HTML + Tailwind is static with no loading logic | React + Styled-Components expects you to pass disabled yourself; React + CSS Modules has no component logic at all |
| What you get | A complete, ready-to-paste button (HTML + Tailwind is static markup) | React + Styled-Components is a complete component; React + CSS Modules is a partial CSS snippet - see Limitations |
Which should you use?
Pick a Tailwind-based format for the focus ring and loading-state wiring without extra work. Pick React + Styled-Components if your project already uses styled-components and skips Tailwind. React + CSS Modules needs the most manual completion right now.
Animated button generator visitors are frontend developers or designers who need a working button component quickly. Live preview updates as you adjust any setting, and the most common questions are about which frameworks are supported and whether the animations need JavaScript - both are answered below.
No. The hover and active-state animations (scale, lift, glow, and the rest) are pure CSS transitions and transforms, so they work with just the exported CSS or Tailwind classes - no JavaScript needed for the visual effect. JavaScript is only involved if you use the optional loading-state toggle, since showing a spinner requires your app to manage that state.
The Tailwind-based export formats (React + Tailwind, Vue + Tailwind, HTML + Tailwind) assume Tailwind is already configured in your project - the utility classes will work as long as Tailwind can see them. If you're using Bootstrap or plain CSS instead, use the React + Styled-Components export, which doesn't depend on a utility framework being present. The React + CSS Modules export currently generates only a partial CSS snippet rather than a complete stylesheet, so it needs manual completion regardless of framework.
Five formats: React + Tailwind, Vue 3 + Tailwind, React + styled-components, React + CSS Modules, and plain HTML + Tailwind. Switch between them from the export dropdown without losing your current design - color, preset, and animation choices carry over to whichever format you pick.
Nine: Scale Up, Lift Up, 3D Press, Elastic, Neon Glow, SaaS Shine, Jelly, Glitch, and Pulse. Each is previewed live as you select it, so you can compare the feel before copying any code.
The React + Tailwind, Vue + Tailwind, and HTML + Tailwind exports include a visible focus ring in the class list for keyboard navigation; the React + Styled-Components and React + CSS Modules exports don't add one automatically. The tool's own live preview also sets aria-busy and aria-disabled while the loading state is on, but those attributes aren't included in the code you copy - add them yourself if your project needs to communicate the loading state to assistive technology. As with any generated code, review it against your project's specific accessibility requirements before shipping.
The hover-triggered effects (scale, lift, glow, and the rest) rely on the standard CSS :hover state, which touch screens don't reliably trigger the way a mouse does - some browsers simulate it on tap, others don't fire it at all. The active-state effects (like the press animation) do work on tap since they use :active, not :hover. If mobile interaction matters for your use case, test the exported code on an actual touch device rather than assuming hover parity.
No. It only generates the code - copying it into your project, making sure Tailwind is configured (for Tailwind-based exports), or installing styled-components (for that export format) is up to you. There's no deploy or auto-publish step.
