Pure CSS/CSS3 Animated Radial Menu

Preview:

Description:

A pure HTML / CSS based radial menu that expands / collapses menu items sequentially with smooth CSS3 animations.

How to use it:

Include the optional Font Awesome 4 for menu icons.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://netdna.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.3.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">

Uses checkbox and label trick to create a toggle button that allows you to open / close the radial menu.

<input id="check" type="checkbox">
<label class="main" for="check">
  <div class="title">
    <i class="fa fa-bars"></i>
  </div>
</label>

Create menu items displayed around the toggle button.

<div class="container">
  <a class="plate" href="#">
    <i class="fa fa-tumblr"></i>
  </a>
  <a class="plate" href="#">
    <i class="fa fa-pinterest"></i>
  </a>
  <a class="plate" href="#">
    <i class="fa fa-instagram"></i>
  </a>
  <a class="plate" href="h#">
    <i class="fa fa-linkedin"></i>
  </a>
  <a class="plate" href="#">
    <i class="fa fa-github"></i>
  </a>
  <a class="plate" href="#" target="_top">
    <i class="fa fa-google-plus"></i>
  </a>
  <a class="plate" href="#" target="_top">
    <i class="fa fa-facebook"></i>
  </a>
  <a class="plate" href="#">
    <i class="fa fa-twitter"></i>
  </a>
</div>
