Card Hover Effects Bootstrap (zoom)

Bootstrap cards are widely used across responsive websites. You can add your own creative touch to it. But this post is not about creating a Bootstrap card. It’s about adding a hover effect to the Bootstrap card to enhance the user experience. You will learn how to add a simple yet cool zoom hover effect by using some CSS.

1. For this example, I am using Bootstrap video card.

<div class="card" style="width: 18rem;">
  <video controls="" src="https://codingyaar.com/wp-content/uploads/video-in-bootstrap-card.mp4"
    class="bs-card-video"></video>
  <div class="card-body">
    <h5 class="card-title">Bootstrap video card with controls</h5>
    <p class="card-text">
      Some quick example text to build on the card title and make up the bulk of
      the card's content.
    </p>
    <a href="#" class="btn btn-primary">Go somewhere</a>
  </div>
</div>

video {
  max-width: 100%;
}

Output:

Bootstrap video card with controls

2. To add to zoom hover effect, add transform scale property. Adjust scale value as you want.

.card:hover {
  transform: scale(1.1);
}

Output:

3. Now, to have a smooth animation feel to the hover effect, let’s add a transition.

.card {
  transition: transform 0.2s ease;
}

Output:

4. There you go! There’s your Bootstrap card zoom hover effect. To make it look more like the final output shown earlier, I have removed the border properties and added a box-shadow to the Bootstrap card.

.card {
  box-shadow: 0 4px 6px 0 rgba(22, 22, 26, 0.18);
  border-radius: 0;
  border: 0;
}

Output:
