A modern animated toggle menu built with JavaScript and CSS3 transitions & transforms.
How to use it:
1. Create a nav list with a toggle button on the page.
<nav class="active" id="nav">
<ul>
<li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Works</a></li>
<li><a href="#">About</a></li>
<li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>
</ul>
<button class="icon" id="toggle">
<div class="line line1"></div>
<div class="line line2"></div>
</button>
</nav>2. The main CSS for the toggle menu.
nav {
background-color: white;
padding: 20px;
width: 80px;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
border-radius: 3px;
box-shadow: 0 2px 5px rgba(0,0,0,0.3);
transition: width 0.6s linear;
}
nav.active {
width: 350px;
}
nav ul {
display: flex;
list-style: none;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
width: 0;
transition: width 0.6s linear;
}
nav.active ul {
width: 100%;
}
nav ul li {
transform: rotateY(0deg);
opacity: 0;
transition: transform 0.6s linear, opacity 0.6s linear;
}
nav.active ul li {
opacity: 1;
transform: rotateY(360deg);
}
nav ul a {
position: relative;
color: black;
text-decoration: none;
margin: 0 10px;
}3. Style the toggle button.
.icon {
background-color: white;
border: none;
cursor: pointer;
position: relative;
height: 30px;
width: 30px;
}
.icon:focus {
outline: none;
}
.icon .line {
background-color: #5290f9;
height: 2px;
width: 20px;
position: absolute;
top: 10px;
left: 5px;
transition: transform 0.6s linear;
}
.icon .line2 {
top: auto;
bottom: 10px;
}
nav.active .icon .line1 {
transform: rotate(-765deg) translateY(5.5px);
}
nav.active .icon .line2 {
transform: rotate(765deg) translateY(-5.5px);
}4. Enable the toggle button to expand & collapse the menu.
const toggle = document.getElementById('toggle');
const nav = document.getElementById('nav');
toggle.addEventListener('click', () => {
nav.classList.toggle('active')
});
