Let’s learn how to make CTA buttons with pure HTML and CSS, using no single line of javascript.

First of all, open your favorite code editor and copy this HTML boilerplate code.

After the HTML boilerplate code writes your page title, import an external CSS file. Following this: import the Box Icon CDN link which will give us SVG icons.

Button HTML Code

That’s it for the HTML part let’s start our CSS code.

An HTML web page or document requires default margin and padding.

So first of all we will set the 0 zero to margin and padding of HTML body.

‘box-sizing: border-box;’ is used because sometimes when child element or div is bigger than parent div it overflow the size of parent div. That’s why border-box prevent child element to overflow from parent div.

Now we will beautify our HTML body to show our CTA button at the center of the web page. We have used CSS flexbox, the height will be 100vh, the width is 100% and the background colour is white grey.

So we have designed a body of the web page now we will work on our CTA button element.

All this code is easy to understand but don’t worry if you are stuck anywhere at any point of this code snippet you can simply comment your queries I will definitely solve it.

After that, we will add some hover effect on our call to action button.

We have just disabled the button box-shadow and the cursor will be a pointer on hover.

And one more thing let’s add some font size in the button icon and padding from the right side because it is looking close to the text.
