Watch the line draw itself. Hover and a glowing line starts tracing around the button's edge—like a pen drawing a box in real-time. The trace completes the full perimeter, then pulses gently. It's technical, precise, and satisfying to watch. The SVG stroke animation feels premium and intentional, like something loading or activating. Perfect for tech products, developer tools, or any UI that should feel engineered. The line draws clockwise—purposeful and clean.
