This is a simple example where the mouse hover has an animation of rotating the text using only CSS and HTML. The menu items here are set as circles with the use of the border-radius class. Class WebKit-transform is used to apply rotating animation and the value for it is set as rotate(-360deg) which then rotates 3600. This rotating animation is set up to the mouse hover div with the use of class hover for the selected div in the CSS. Source: https://codepen.io/npav/pen/BjhkH
