Minimal Mobile-friendly Off-canvas Navigation

Description:

A minimal mobile-friendly navigation that allows to reveal an off-canvas sidebar menu with a fullpage overlay when the user click on the hamburger toggle button. Built on top of pure JavaScript and CSS / CSS3. Without any dependencies like jQuery.

How to use it:

<span id="shadowbox" onclick="menuToggle()"></span>

Create the off-canvas navigation.

<nav>
  <button id="navBtn" onclick="menuToggle()">
    <div></div>
    <div></div>
    <div></div>
    <div></div>
  </button>
  <ul id="listMenu">
    <li><a href="">Lorem</a></li>
    <li><a href="">Ipsum</a></li>
    <li><a href="">Sit</a></li>
    <li><a href="">Amet</a></li>
    <li><a href="">Sis</a></li>
    <li><a href="">Amus</a></li>
    <li><a href="">Dolor</a></li>
  </ul>
</nav>

  position: absolute;
  transition: ease-in-out .5s;
