Implementation notes

About the Warp Drive CSS button

Warp Drive uses technical geometry and motion for an engineered visual language. Its cut corners add a technical accent without relying on an image asset. It is built around a two-stop linear gradient anchored on #4f46e5. The slide, hover reveal details are included in the copy-paste CSS.

Usage

<button class="btn-warp-drive">Button</button>

Pair it with the CSS tab above — the class is self-contained.

Before shipping: keep the semantic button element, verify contrast on your actual background and add a visible:focus-visible state. If you retain motion, include a prefers-reduced-motion override.

Built with: HTML + plain CSS
Shape: Cut Corner
Exports: CSS, Tailwind, React
