What is a button in design?
At their most basic, UX buttons are styled links that grab the user's attention and help drive them in a particular direction. Buttons can link us to other pages or complete an action like submitting a form or making a purchase. They are often used as calls to actions (CTA) we want our users to complete on our website.
Do buttons need a hover state?
Hover: The hover state is specific to web design as mobile devices don't typically support a hover interaction. This is the state that a button will be in as the mouse cursor rolls over the button on the screen.
