I Hope can learn how to fix it, and make it works like the video by Tailwind-CSS, thanks!

Solution

  • You can achieve that in pure tailwind with group max-w-{x} and transition-all, use group-hover on the span so when you pass over the link it start the animation

    <a href="#" class="group text-sky-600 transition duration-300">
Link
<span class="block max-w-0 group-hover:max-w-full transition-all duration-500 h-0.5 bg-sky-600"></span>
</a>
