Flipping the styled container - html

Question

This is the pen I am working on and I want to create something more interesting for my portfolio, but I've stuck on the part when I want to have the same elements on the right side of the screen doing the same expanding but to the other direction (mirrored/flipped/reverted/opposite).
The full code can be viewed in the pen. https://codepen.io/benjaminj/pen/oNqWPRb
As You can see I have used scale but this also flipped and the text inside which is not the end goal of this project. Also when hovering the elements on the right weird tremble occurs which also I don't get from where is coming.
I have designed a container with expanding side where the text of the container is revealed. Also a grid seemed to me the best for positioning the elements. Below is the HTML code:
Because of the pretty weird and complex (for me) design I have used: before and: after for the text.
The elements on the left side are working as a charm, but when I tried to "mirror" those elements on the right side and expand to the center of the screen the troubles started.
But for the element on the right side I used only the scaleX (-1)
.main3 {
display: block;
grid-column-start: 3;
grid-column-end: 4;
grid-row-start: 1;
grid-row-end: 2;
transform: scaleX(-1);
}
Here is the code
.gridContainer {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: 100px auto auto 100px;
grid-template-rows: repeat(4, auto);
row-gap: 100px;
}
.main {
display: block;
grid-column-start: 2;
grid-column-end: 3;
}
.main2 {
display: block;
grid-column-start: 2;
grid-column-end: 3;
grid-row-start: 2;
grid-row-end: 3;
}
.main3 {
display: block;
grid-column-start: 3;
grid-column-end: 4;
grid-row-start: 1;
grid-row-end: 2;
transform: scaleX(-1);
}
.main3 span {
}
.main3 .background::before {
width: 35%;
}
.test {
z-index: 100;
width: 400px;
height: 100px;
background-color: #67ade0;
position: absolute;
border-bottom-style: solid;
border-color: #93cff1;
border-width: 100px;
clip-path: polygon(10% 0%, 5% 50%, 10% 100%, 5% 100%, 0% 50%, 5% 0%);
}
.background {

}
.test:hover ~ .diamondAnimate {
margin-left: -45px;

}
.innerBtn {

margin-top: 150px;
margin-left: 160px;
}
<div class="gridContainer">

As You can see from the visual box of the codepen, the element on the right side is trembling and the text is inverted. This issue seems to be outside of my little knowledge and that's the reason for taking the guts and posting here.
PS: I have also tried to rebuild the whole container on another way ( https://codepen.io/benjaminj/pen/zYWwyeQ) but here I stumbled with the background that I want to be visible only in the expanding area.

Answer 1

For the test being flipped: You just need to transform:scaleX(-1) also the inner div .background
For the hover being shaking, is because the horizontal scroll showing then hiding, so use overflow: hidden in .main
I also improved your code a bit, deleting duplicated properties and other minor stuff
body {
margin: 0;
overflow: hidden
}
.gridContainer {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: 100px auto auto 100px;
grid-template-rows: repeat(4, auto);
row-gap: 100px;
}
.main {
grid-column: 2 / 3;
overflow: hidden
}
.main2 {
grid-row: 2 / 3;
}
.main3 {
grid-column: 3 / 4;
transform: scaleX(-1);
}
.main3 .background {
transform: scaleX(-1);
}
.test {
z-index: 100;
width: 400px;
height: 100px;
background-color: #67ade0;
position: absolute;
border-bottom-style: solid;
border-color: #93cff1;
border-width: 100px;
clip-path: polygon(10% 0%, 5% 50%, 10% 100%, 5% 100%, 0% 50%, 5% 0%);
}
.background {
display: inline-flex;
