How to create a Sliding Full screen Curtain navigation menu with CSS and JavaScript

Step 1 :

Adding HTML, Creating basic Structure of the page and Menu

<!-- The overlay Wrap or the Curtain Menu -->
<div id="myNav" class="overlay">

  <!-- Button to close the overlay navigation -->
  <a href="javascript:void(0)" class="closebtn" onclick="closeNav()">&times;</a>

  <!-- Overlay content -->
  <div class="overlay-content">
    <a href="#">About</a>
    <a href="#">Services</a>
    <a href="#">Clients</a>
    <a href="#">Contact</a>
  </div>

</div>



 <!-- Creating a Dummy Page -->
<h2>This a page </h2>



<!-- open/show the overlay navigation menu -->
<span style="font-size:30px;cursor:pointer" onclick="openNav()">&#9776; open</span>

 

Step 2 : Adding Css :

 /* The Overlay (background) */
.overlay {
  /* Height & width depends on how you want to reveal the overlay (see JS below) */   
  height: 100%;
  width: 0;
  position: fixed; /* Stay in place */
  z-index: 1; /* Sit on top */
  left: 0;
  top: 0;
  background-color: rgb(0,0,0); /* Black fallback color */
  background-color: rgba(0,0,0, 0.9); /* Black w/opacity */
  overflow-x: hidden; /* Disable horizontal scroll */
  transition: 0.5s; /* 0.5 second transition effect to slide in or slide down the overlay (height or width, depending on reveal) */
}

/* Position the content inside the overlay */
.overlay-content {
  position: relative;
  top: 25%; /* 25% from the top */
  width: 100%; /* 100% width */
  text-align: center; /* Centered text/links */
  margin-top: 30px; /* 30px top margin to avoid conflict with the close button on smaller screens */
}

/* The navigation links inside the overlay */
.overlay a {
  padding: 8px;
  text-decoration: none;
  font-size: 36px;
  color: #818181;
  display: block; /* Display block instead of inline */
  transition: 0.3s; /* Transition effects on hover (color) */
}

/* When you mouse over the navigation links, change their color */
.overlay a:hover, .overlay a:focus {
  color: #f1f1f1;
}

/* Position the close button (top right corner) */
.overlay .closebtn {
  position: absolute;
  top: 20px;
  right: 45px;
  font-size: 60px;
}

/* When the height of the screen is less than 450 pixels, change the font-size of the links and position the close button again, so they don't overlap */
@media screen and (max-height: 450px) {
  .overlay a {font-size: 20px}
  .overlay .closebtn {
    font-size: 40px;
    top: 15px;
    right: 35px;
  }
}

Final Step :

Adding Javascript :

/* Open when someone clicks on the span element */
function openNav() {
  document.getElementById("myNav").style.width = "100%";
}

/* Close when someone clicks on the "x" symbol inside the overlay */
function closeNav() {
  document.getElementById("myNav").style.width = "0%";
}

 

Final code and output will look like this :
