What I learned

I initially thought I'd have to use the alpha channel for rgb or hsl to imitiate transparency on the hover pseudo-class, however a quick search on MDN docs showed there was a better way.

button:hover {
  color: hsl(0, 0%, 95%);
  background-color: transparent;
  border: 2px solid hsl(0, 0%, 95%);
}

This was a great opportunity to practice with Grid and Flexbox.
