This navbar will feature a centered logo, menu items, a call-to-action (CTA) button, and a custom hamburger menu for mobile screens. We'll use HTML, CSS, and a bit of JavaScript.
Step 1: Setting Up the HTML Structure
First things first, we gotta lay down the basic structure for our navigation bar in html.
index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
</head>
<body>
<nav class="navbar">
<div class="menu-left">
<a href="#">Home</a>
<a href="#">Services</a>
<a href="#">About</a>
</div>
<div class="logo">
<img src="logo.png" alt="Logo">
</div>
<div class="menu-right">
<a href="#" class="cta-button">Contact Us</a>
<div class="hamburger" onclick="toggleMobileMenu()">
<span></span>
<span></span>
<span></span>
</div>
</div>
</nav>
<div id="mobileMenu" class="mobile-menu">
<a href="#" class="closebtn" onclick="toggleMobileMenu()">×</a>
<a href="#">Home</a>
<a href="#">Services</a>
<a href="#">About</a>
<a href="#" class="cta-button">Contact Us</a>
</div>
<script src="script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
Step 2: Styling with CSS
Now, let's get fancy with the visuals. We're talking modern design vibes here—subtle shadows, smooth transitions, the works.
style.css
.navbar {
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
align-items: center;
background-color: #333;
color: white;
padding: 10px 20px;
box-shadow: 0 2px 5px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
}
.menu-left, .menu-right, .logo {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
.logo img {
max-height: 50px;
}
.hamburger {
display: none;
cursor: pointer;
flex-direction: column;
justify-content: space-around;
width: 30px;
height: 25px;
}
.hamburger span {
background-color: white;
height: 3px;
width: 100%;
border-radius: 2px;
transition: all 0.3s ease;
}
.cta-button {
background-color: #007bff;
color: white;
padding: 10px 20px;
text-decoration: none;
border-radius: 5px;
transition: background-color 0.3s ease;
}
.cta-button:hover {
background-color: #0056b3;
}
.mobile-menu {
height: 100%;
width: 0;
position: fixed;
z-index: 1;
top: 0;
left: 0;
background-color: #111;
overflow-x: hidden;
transition: width 0.5s ease;
padding-top: 60px;
}
.mobile-menu a {
padding: 15px 25px;
text-decoration: none;
font-size: 22px;
color: white;
display: block;
transition: color 0.3s ease;
}
.mobile-menu a:hover {
color: #ddd;
}
.mobile-menu .closebtn {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: 25px;
font-size: 36px;
cursor: pointer;
}
@media screen and (max-width: 768px) {
.menu-left, .menu-right .cta-button {
display: none;
}
.menu-right .hamburger {
display: flex;
}
}
@media screen and (min-width: 768px) {
.mobile-menu {
display: none;
}
}
a {
color: white;
text-decoration: none;
transition: color 0.3s ease;
}
a:hover {
color: #ddd;
}
.navbar a:not(.cta-button) {
padding: 10px 15px;
margin: 0 5px;
transition: background-color 0.3s ease;
}
.navbar a:not(.cta-button):hover {
background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1);
border-radius: 5px;
}
Step 3: Adding JavaScript for Interactivity
For the mobile crowd, we'll sprinkle a bit of JavaScript magic. When you hit that burger menu, it'll conjure up the mobile menu in style.
function toggleMobileMenu() {
const menu = document.getElementById("mobileMenu");
if (menu.style.width === "100%") {
menu.style.width = "0";
} else {
menu.style.width = "100%";
}
}
Conclusion
And there you have it, a super cool and responsive navigation bar, ready to rock the digital world.
