How TO — Text Buttons

To get the «text button» look, we remove the default background color and border:

Example

.btn <
border: none;
background-color: inherit;
padding: 14px 28px;
font-size: 16px;
cursor: pointer;
display: inline-block;
>

Text Buttons with Individual Backgrounds

Text buttons with a specific background color on hover:

Example

.btn <
border: none;
background-color: inherit;
padding: 14px 28px;
font-size: 16px;
cursor: pointer;
display: inline-block;
>

.success:hover background-color: #04AA6D;
color: white;
>

.info:hover background: #2196F3;
color: white;
>

.warning:hover background: #ff9800;
color: white;
>

.danger:hover background: #f44336;
color: white;
>

.default:hover background: #e7e7e7;
>
