Usage
usage.tsx
import SlideTextButton from "@/components/kokonutui/slide-text-button";export function ButtonExamples() { return ( <div className="flex gap-3"> <SlideTextButton /> <SlideTextButton text="View pricing" hoverText="Compare plans" href="/pricing" /> <SlideTextButton text="Contact sales" href="/contact" variant="ghost" /> </div> );}- Use for navigation links or calls to action where a short alternate phrase adds context on hover.
- Use the default variant for a prominent action and the ghost variant for a quieter, outlined action.
- Use when a small text-motion effect fits the surrounding interface and the destination is a page or route.
Examples
Default destination
Use the default label and destination.

import SlideTextButton from "@/components/kokonutui/slide-text-button";<SlideTextButton />Alternate hover label
Provide a different phrase to reveal on hover.
alternate-hover-label.tsx
import SlideTextButton from "@/components/kokonutui/slide-text-button";<SlideTextButton text="View pricing" hoverText="Compare plans" href="/pricing" />Ghost link

Accessibility
- This renders a link, not a button; provide a meaningful href and label appropriate to its destination.
- The initial and alternate text are both rendered in the link, so keep the combined accessible name clear and avoid redundant wording.
- The text transition is triggered by hover styling; there is no explicit focus-triggered animation or focus-visible style in the component.
- The component does not define reduced-motion behavior. Consider the motion effect when using it in interfaces that need to accommodate reduced-motion preferences.
