Create a own icon icon revealing hover using HTML and CSS.

Animation inspired by google(Sheets).

let start the article. First create a HTML and the the below code.
```html
<section>
  <button class="nav-link icono-plus"></button>
  <ul class="nav-list">
    <li class="nav-list-item"></li>
    <li class="nav-list-item"></li>
    <li class="nav-list-item"></li>
   </ul>
</section>
``` 

The above code functionality when ever i have the button I want to show the `nav-list-item` items with bubble animation.

Button Design:
```css
.nav-link {
  font-size: 18px;
  width: 36px;
  height: 36px;
  border-radius: 100%;
  border: none;
  background-color: #000;
  color: #fff;
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
  z-index: 2;
  transition: ease 0.3s;
  transform: scale(1) rotate(0deg);
  cursor: pointer;

  .icono-plus {
    font-size: 16px;
    text-align: center;
  }
}
```

Dropdown Item design
```css
.nav-list {
  list-style:none;
  text-align: center;
  margin-top: 12px;
  position: relative;
  
  &-item{
    width: 22px;
    height: 22px;
    margin: auto;
    background-color: #333;
    margin-bottom: 8px;
    border-radius: 100%;
    position: relative;
  }
}
```

    &:nth-child(1) {
      transform: translateY(36px);
      animation: icon1 0.5s;
    }
    
     &:nth-child(2) {
      transform: translateY(40px);
      animation: icon2 0.5s;

  border-radius: 100%;
  border: none;
  background-color: #000;
  color: #fff;
  z-index: 2;
  transition: ease 0.3s;
  transform: scale(1) rotate(0deg);
  cursor: pointer;
  
  &:hover {
    transition: ease 0.3s;
    transform: scale(0.9) rotate(45deg);
    
    & ~ .nav-list {
    display: block;
    }
  }

  .icono-plus {
    font-size: 16px;
    text-align: center;
  }
}

@keyframes icon1 {
  0% {
    opacity: 0;
    transform: translateY(0);
  }

  100% {
    opacity: 1;
    transform: translateY(36px);
  }
}

@keyframes icon2 {
  0% {
    opacity: 0;
    transform: translateY(0px);
  }
  30% {
    opacity: 0;
  }

  100% {
    opacity: 1;
    transform: translateY(40px);
  }
}

@keyframes icon3 {
  0% {
    opacity: 0;
    transform: translateY(0px);
  }
  
  20% {
    opacity: 0;
    transform: translateY(10px);
  }
  
  40% {
    opacity: 0;
    transform: translateY(30px);
  }

  100% {
