7 Pure CSS Tooltips

A long time ago if you called to develop a stylish tooltip or a message bubble with flexible content you would need a lot of time and images to create a stylish flex box. Now you just need one or two containers with some lines of CSS, no images and no javascript.

HINT.css

hint.css is written as a pure CSS resource using which you can create cool tooltips for your web app. It does not rely on JavaScript and rather uses data-* attribute, pseudo elements, content property and CSS3 transitions to create the tooltips. Also it uses BEM naming convention particularly for the modifiers.
