Slide-out or Navigation Drawer jQuery Menus for your next web app!

Updated: January 30, 2023 by Sravan K • 2 min read

jQuery based Slideout menus or Navigation Drawer

Many jQuery plugins are available to implement Slide-out menus or Navigation Drawer, which is compatible with almost all browsers and devices. Nowadays, these Slide-out menus are implemented not only for tablets or mobile apps but also for desktop websites, blogs, or apps. It saves a lot of space to accommodate and prioritize your main content.

You might have already observed these slide-out or dock menus in almost all the apps like YouTube, Google Plus, Facebook on your mobile or tablet, which actually saves a lot of space and is easy to navigate.

I don’t want to mess up your mind with many options – Here are just a few list plugins or codes which I found to be very minimal and easy to implement Navigation Drawer or slide-out menu. Following are a couple of interesting jQuery plugins which are easy to implement, and the last one on this list is my favorite, though.

A Library for creating beautiful mobile shelves in JavaScript (Facebook and Path style side menus), and here is the Demo.

Facebook Style

Aldomatic a front-end developer and designer recreated the slide-out menu in the Facebook iPhone app. I also wanted to implement it in a jQuery mobile layout and here is a quick demo.

I found this menu to be the best among all:
