30+ Top CSS Arrow Design Ideas for Your Website

CSS arrows can be used to create arrow shapes, pointers, and other similar shapes in web design. Here are a few ways to create CSS arrows:

1. border trick: This method uses the border property to create an arrow shape by using different border widths and colors.

.arrow {
  width: 0;
  height: 0;
  border-left: 10px solid transparent;
  border-right: 10px solid transparent;
  border-bottom: 10px solid black;
}

2. Transform property: This method uses the transform property to rotate a rectangle and create an arrow shape.

.arrow {
  width: 0;
  height: 0;
  border-left: 20px solid transparent;
  border-right: 20px solid transparent;
  border-top: 20px solid black;
  transform: rotate(135deg);
}

3. Pseudo-elements: This method uses pseudo-elements such as :before and :after to create arrow shapes.

.arrow {
  position: relative;
  margin: 10px;
  padding: 10px;
  background-color: black;
  color: white;
}

.arrow:before {
  content: "";
  position: absolute;
  top: 100%;
  left: 50%;
  margin-left: -10px;
  border-width: 10px 10px 0;
  border-style: solid;
  border-color: black transparent transparent;
}
