msc-sidebar

A sidebar provides a way to display meta content intended for temporary access (navigation links, buttons, menus, etc.). The sidebar can be revealed by a button tap while the main content remains visually underneath.

Let's take a try and see what can <msc-sidebar /> do.

Basic Usage

<msc-sidebar /> is a web component. All we need to do is put the required script into your HTML document. Then follow <msc-sidebar />'s html structure and everything will be all set.

• Required Script

<script 
  type="module"
  src="https://your-domain/wc-msc-sidebar.js"
</script>

• Structure

Put the content inside <msc-sidebar /> as its child. When <msc-sidebar /> opened. It will display the content with the whole viewport size.

<msc-sidebar>
  <script type="application/json">
    {
      "open": false,
      "side": "left"
    }
  </script>

  <!-- content node, add slot="content" to it. -->
  <nav slot="content">
    ...
  </nav>
</msc-sidebar>

Or set attributes directly.

<msc-sidebar side="left">
  <!-- content node, add slot="content" to it. -->
  <nav slot="content">
    ...
  </nav>
</msc-sidebar>

Otherwise, developers could also choose remoteconfig to fetch config for

<msc-sidebar remoteconfig="https://your-domain/api-path">
  <!-- content node, add slot="content" to it. -->
  <nav slot="content">
    ...
  </nav>
</msc-sidebar>
