Yet another off-canvas menu system that helps you create a toggleable sidebar navigation that behaves like a native side navigation as you seen on Android apps.
How to use it:
1. Create an element to toggle the sidebar navigation.
<div id="mobile-nav"></div>
2. Create the sidebar navigation from a nav list.
<nav> <ul class="menu"> <li><a href="#">Home</a></li> <li><a href="#">Works</a></li> <li><a href="#">Services</a></li> <li><a href="#">Blog</a></li> <li><a href="#">About</a></li> <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li> </ul> </nav>
3. The basic CSS styles for the sidebar navigation.
.menu { list-style: none; line-height: 42px; margin: auto; padding-left: 0; width: 15em; } .menu a { background: url(icons.png) no-repeat left top; color: #ddd; text-decoration: none; text-transform: uppercase; display: block; padding-left: 3em; width: 100%; } .menu a:hover { margin-left: 1em; -webkit-transition: all .5s; -o-transition: all .5s; transition: all .5s; } .menu li { box-shadow: 3px 0 rgba(52,152,219,.2) inset; margin-bottom: 5px; padding-left: .5em; -webkit-transition: all .5s; -o-transition: all .5s; transition: all .5s; }
4. Style the active / inactive state of the sidebar navigation.
nav { background: rgba(41,128,185,1); padding-right: .25em; position: absolute; left: -18em; top: 0; padding-top: 5em; box-sizing: border-box; z-index: 20; height: 100%; -webkit-transition: all .3s; -o-transition: all .3s; transition: all .3s; } nav.active { left: 0; }
5. The JavaScript to show / hide the sidebar navigation by toggling the 'active' class. Add the following JavaScript snippet after jQuery library and done.
$('#mobile-nav').click(function(event) { $('nav').toggleClass('active'); });
