I am currently working on developing a static website using Gatsby and I am facing some challenges. I am trying to implement a hover effect for the menu items in the navigation bar, but I am encountering difficulties with the CSS classes including Site-header, wrapper site-header__wrapper, nav__wrapper, and nav__item. I have attempted to make changes to both nav__wrapper.active and nav__item a in the CSS, but have not been successful in achieving the desired result. Below, you can find the HTML and CSS code that I have tried so far. I would greatly appreciate any guidance or advice on how to successfully achieve this hover effect. Thank you in advance.
