CSS Button Best Practices
Design Guidelines
- • Use consistent padding (typically 8-16px vertical, 16-32px horizontal)
- • Ensure sufficient color contrast for accessibility (4.5:1 minimum)
- • Keep border radius consistent across your design system
- • Use subtle shadows for depth without overwhelming the design
- • Make hover states visually distinct but not jarring
Performance Tips
- • Use CSS transitions for smooth hover effects
- • Prefer transform over changing layout properties
- • Keep transition durations between 150-300ms
- • Use box-shadow instead of border for focus states
- • Consider using CSS custom properties for theme consistency
