Installation
Slideout is available on cdnjs
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/slideout/1.0.1/slideout.min.js"></script>
Also you can use one of many package managers
$ npm install slideout
$ spm install slideout
$ bower install slideout.js
$ component install mango/slideout
Usage
Implementing Slideout.js into your project is easy.
First of all, you'll need to create your markup. You should have a menu (#menu
) and a main content (#panel
) into your body.
<nav id="menu">
<header>
<h2>Menu</h2>
</header>
</nav>
<main id="panel">
<header>
<h2>Panel</h2>
</header>
</main>
Add the Slideout.js styles (index.css) in your web application.
body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.slideout-menu {
position: fixed;
left: 0;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
right: 0;
z-index: 0;
width: 256px;
overflow-y: scroll;
-webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;
display: none;
}
.slideout-panel {
position: relative;
z-index: 1;
will-change: transform;
}
.slideout-open,
.slideout-open body,
.slideout-open .slideout-panel {
overflow: hidden;
}
.slideout-open .slideout-menu {
display: block;
}
Then you just include Slideout.js and create a new instance with some options:
<script src="dist/slideout.min.js"></script>
<script>
var slideout = new Slideout({
'panel': document.getElementById('panel'),
'menu': document.getElementById('menu'),
'padding': 256,
'tolerance': 70
});
</script>

'side': 'right'
});
How to enable slideout only on mobile devices.

display: block;
}

How to use slideout with a fixed header.
You should define a two class names: fixed
and fixed-open
.
.fixed {
backface-visibility: hidden;
position: fixed;
z-index:2;
transition: transform 300ms ease;
}
.fixed-open {
transform: translate3d(256px, 0px, 0px);
}
Then, using slideout's events you should add / remove the fixed-open
class name from the fixed element.
slideout.on('beforeopen', function() {
document.querySelector('.fixed').classList.add('fixed-open');
});
slideout.on('beforeclose', function() {
document.querySelector('.fixed').classList.remove('fixed-open');
});
