Please review my code for a Flexbox layout that displays a "Learn More" button and text description when hovered over. I attempted to use the .column:hover + .hide selector, but the .hide class does not seem to be functioning properly.

I have a few questions regarding the functionality and design of the code:

Initially, I want the button to be hidden and only shown on the right
side when hovered over.
I also want the description text to be displayed when hovering over the button.

Thank you in advance for your help!

If I understand you correctly, I believe this is what you want.
I added 2 rules at the bottom of the CSS.

The last rule is searching for a parent that contains a hovered button. When found, it displays the text for the first column.

More information on the :has() selector can be found here.

* {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  box-sizing: border-box;

html,
body {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  height: 100%;
}

body {
  background-color: #10172b;

  color: #ffffff;
}

.container {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: space-between;
  background: #10172b;

.column {
  flex: 1;
  background-color: #f1f1f1;
  transition: flex 0.5s;
  cursor: pointer;
  background: #293346;
  margin-right: 20px;
}

.column:hover {
  flex: 0 0 60%;
}

.responsive {
  max-width: 100%;
  height: auto;
}

.purple {
  align-self: flex-end;
