I am using uikit for a web app that I am creating for my team. I really like the Stage demo's search field and want to mimic it. I extracted the CSS from the demo:

.uk-search:before {
  content: "\f002";
  position: absolute;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  width: 30px;
  line-height: 40px;
  text-align: center;
  font-family: FontAwesome;
  font-size: 14px;
  color: #444;
}

.uk-search-field {
  -moz-box-sizing: border-box;
  box-sizing: border-box;
  margin: 0;
  border-radius: 0;
  font: inherit;
  color: #777;
  -webkit-appearance: none;
  width: 30px;
  height: 40px;
  padding: 0 0 0 30px;
  border: 1px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);
  background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);
  -webkit-transition: all linear 0.2s;
  transition: all linear 0.2s;
  vertical-align: middle;
  position: relative;
  padding: 0;
  cursor: pointer;
  z-index: 1;
}

.uk-search-field:focus{
    outline:0;
    width:140px;
    padding: 0 30px;
    cursor: text;
}

That's it. Now the search field's textbox can be hidden when it is not focused and slide out when it is focused.
