Definition and Usage
The transition-property property specifies the name of the CSS property the transition effect is for (the transition effect will start when the specified CSS property changes).
Tip: A transition effect could typically occur when a user hover over an element.
Note: Always specify the transition-duration property, otherwise the duration is 0, and the transition will have no effect.
