Description:

A simple, lightweight, sticky, fully responsive, mobile-compatible navigation system built using JavaScript and CSS flexbox.

It automatically collapses the navigation bar into an off-canvas hamburger navigation when the screen size is smaller than a specific width.

Sticky navigation is supported as well. It means that you can stick the navigation bar to the top or bottom of the webpage.

Basic usage:

Import the necessary stylesheet and JavaScript into the document.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="nav.css">
<script src="simply-nav.js"></script>

The necessary HTML structure for the navigation.

<header class="nav-wrapper">
  <nav class="nav" role="navigation">
    <span class="toggleNav">
      <svg class="svg-hamburger" viewBox="0 0 1536 1280" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
        <path class="svg-hamburger-path" d="M1536 1088v128q0 26-19 45t-45 19H64q-26 0-45-19t-19-45v-128q0-26 19-45t45-19h1408q26 0 45 19t19 45zm0-512v128q0 26-19 45t-45 19H64q-26 0-45-19T0 704V576q0-26 19-45t45-19h1408q26 0 45 19t19 45zm0-512v128q0 26-19 45t-45 19H64q-26 0-45-19T0 192V64q0-26 19-45T64 0h1408q26 0 45 19t19 45z"

      <div class="nav__list-right">
        <div class="page__overlay"></div>
      </div>
    </ul>
  </nav>
</header>

To create a sticky navigation, just add the -sticky class to the nav wrapper.

<header class="nav-wrapper -sticky">
  ...
</header>

Stick the navigation to the bottom using the -bottom class.

<header class="nav-wrapper -sticky -bottom">
  ...
</header>
