This JavaScript code provides an off-canvas menu functionality for your website. When a user clicks the navigation icon, the menu slides in from the right side. This feature is helpful for creating a clean and organized mobile-friendly navigation experience.

It offers a compact and user-friendly navigation solution. You can integrate this code on your website to implement an off-canvas menu, which is perfect for mobile and responsive designs.

How to Create Off Canvas Menu Using JavaScript

1. First of all, load the Normalize CSS and Google Fonts by adding the following CDN links into the head tag of your HTML document.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/normalize/5.0.0/normalize.min.css">
<link rel='stylesheet' href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Raleway|Spectral'>

2. After that, create the HTML structure for the off-canvas menu. Include a navigation icon and the menu content. For instance, create a div with a unique class for the navigation icon and a nav element for the menu content.

<div class="navicon" id="navicon"><span></span></div>

<nav class="main-nav" id="main-nav" role="navigation">
	<ul class="main-nav__list">
		<li><a class="main-nav__link" href="#!0">&Uacute;vod</a></li>
		<li><a class="main-nav__link" href="#!0">Produkty</a></li>
		<li><a class="main-nav__link" href="#!0">Inform&aacute;cie</a></li>
		<li><a class="main-nav__link" href="#!0">Kontakt</a></li>
		<!--<li><a class="main-nav__link" href="#!0">Cart <span>(5)</span></a></li> -->
	</ul>
	<div class="main-nav__info">
		<p>Aktuálne novinky o nových motívoch svadobných oznamení, pozvánok a etikiet, nájdete aj na týchto sociálnych sieťach:</p>

3. Now, utilize CSS to style the off-canvas menu. Apply styles to hide the menu off-screen initially and to manage its appearance and animations. Use classes like .main-nav, .navicon, and .overlay to structure and style your elements. These classes will handle animations, transitions, and positioning.

4. Finally, implement JavaScript functionalities for toggling the menu. The following code includes functions for adding, removing, and toggling classes. When the navigation icon is clicked, these functions are used to display or hide the menu by adding or removing specific classes.

// @author: Todd Motto

// hasClass
function hasClass(elem, className) {
  return new RegExp(' ' + className + ' ').test(' ' + elem.className + ' ');
}

// addClass
function addClass(elem, className) {
  if (!hasClass(elem, className)) {
    elem.className += ' ' + className;
  }
}

// removeClass
function removeClass(elem, className) {
  var newClass = ' ' + elem.className.replace( /[\t\r\n]/g, ' ') + ' ';
  if (hasClass(elem, className)) {
    while (newClass.indexOf(' ' + className + ' ') >= 0 ) {
      newClass = newClass.replace(' ' + className + ' ', ' ');
    }
  elem.className = newClass.replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g, '');
  }
}

// toggleClass
function toggleClass(elem, className) {
  var newClass = ' ' + elem.className.replace( /[\t\r\n]/g, " " ) + ' ';
  if (hasClass(elem, className)) {
    while (newClass.indexOf(" " + className + " ") >= 0 ) {
      newClass = newClass.replace( " " + className + " " , " " );
    }
    elem.className = newClass.replace(/^\s+|\s+$/g, '');
  } else {
    elem.className += ' ' + className;
  }
}

//document.getElementById('navicon').onclick = function() {
    //toggleClass(this, 'js_is-active');
//}

var menu = document.querySelector('.main-nav'),
    navicon = document.querySelector('.navicon'),
	overlay = document.querySelector('.overlay');

navicon.onclick = function() {
	toggleClass(this, 'js_is-active');
    toggleClass(menu, 'js_show-menu');
	toggleClass(overlay, 'js_show-overlay');
};

overlay.onclick = function() {
	removeClass(navicon, 'js_is-active');
	removeClass(menu, 'js_show-menu');
	removeClass(this, 'js_show-overlay');
}
