I am making a hover effect for the pages for my portfolio website. Everything else is working but the hovering does not. I added ul and used li as I usually do but it did not work.

(Edit)

Your nav ul li a::after has width:100% change it to width: 0%;

Note: I have changed the color of text to make it visible here, add your color to your code.

Demo

.container {
  padding: 10px 10%;
}

nav {
  display: flex;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: space-between;
  flex-wrap: wrap;
}

nav ul li {
  display: inline-block;
  list-style: none;
  margin: 10px 20px;
}

nav ul li a {
  color: #000;
  text-decoration: none;
  font-size: 18px;
  position: relative;
}

nav ul li a::after {
  content: '';
  width: 0%;
  height: 3px;
  background: #ff004f;
  position: absolute;
  left: 0;
  bottom: -6px;
  transition: 0.5s;
}

nav ul li a:hover::after {
  width: 100%;
}
