How to transition property?

Like the question states, how can i transition .icon to right over 4 second?

style.css
/* nav-item transitions ---------- */

.nav-item {
    flex-grow: 1;
  transition : flex-grow .5s;
   transition-timing-function : ease-out;
}

.nav-item:hover {
    flex-grow: 2;
}

/* nav icon transitions ---------- */

.icon {
  right: -25px;
 transition: 0.4ms;
}

.nav-item:hover .icon {
    right: 12%;
}

Hi there! You're really close, so I'm going to give you a couple of hints here.

  • You have the transition but you haven't told it what to transition.
  • Take a look at the transition under .nav-item. It transitions the flex-grow property. So to transition the right property...
  • Your timing is incorrect. You have it transitioning over 0.4ms. That should be 0.4s.

Hope this helps, but let me know if you're still stuck! :sparkles:

Thanks Jennifer Nordell to tickle my brain. I did it.
