Shine Sweep

A bright highlight sweeps repeatedly across the letters.

Add a "Shimmer Text" effect (also called animated shiny text or metallic shimmer text) to [where].
A band of light should sweep smoothly across the letters from left to right, then repeat after a short pause.
Keep the text readable under the highlight, and keep it still for users who prefer reduced motion.

Gray placeholder shapes show a light highlight sweeping across them.

Add a "Skeleton Shimmer" (also called a skeleton wave or shimmer effect) to [where].
A soft band of light should sweep across the gray placeholder shapes from left to right and pause briefly before the next pass: smooth and unhurried.
Match the placeholder shapes to the real layout so nothing jumps when the content loads, and show static placeholders to users who prefer reduced motion.

A bright highlight follows the pointer across a card surface like a reflection.

Add a "Glare / Holographic Card" effect (also called a glare card or glare hover) to [where].
A soft bright highlight should follow the pointer across the card surface like light reflecting off it, while the card leans slightly toward the pointer; both fade away when the pointer leaves: smooth and subtle.
Let clicks pass through the glare layer, keep the content readable under it, and show the card without glare on touch devices.

A bright highlight travels around the border of a card.

Add a "Border Beam" effect (also called a shine border or moving border) to [where].
A short bright highlight should travel around the card's border at an even, unhurried pace, looping without a visible jump.
Keep the card's content and size unchanged by the effect, and stop the beam for users who prefer reduced motion.

The element smoothly scales down slightly when hovered.

Add a "Shrink" hover effect (also called scale down) to [where].
The element should scale down slightly and smoothly while the pointer is over it, and grow back when the pointer leaves: quick and subtle.
Keep the surrounding layout from shifting, and show the same effect on keyboard focus.

The background opens or closes like shutters from the center or the edges on hover.

Add a "Shutter Fill" hover effect (also called shutter) to [where].
The new background color should open from a line down the center out to both sides like shutters, and close back to the center when the pointer leaves, while the label color switches to stay readable: smooth and quick.
Keep the fill clipped inside the element and the label above it, and show the same effect on keyboard focus.

The element moves downward a few pixels on hover, as if pressed into the page.

Add a "Sink" hover effect to [where].
The element should move down a little and stay there while the pointer is over it, as if pressed into the page, and rise back when it leaves: smooth, with no bounce.
Move it visually without shifting the surrounding layout, and show the same effect on keyboard focus.
