Hamburger Menu Demo (React + Styled-components)

Full article (in Russian): Бургер-меню на React, используя хуки и styled-components

There are several components in this app - HamburgerButton, MainMenu and SideMenu. When user clicks on hamburger button, context state is being updated. This way other components will know menu is open. If user clicks again, context state changes back to false.

Hamburger button has two kinds of visual states: on hover and active. Both states were done manually, using CSS styling only. No SVGs or fonts.

:hover {
  span:nth-of-type(1) {
    width: 33px;
  }

  span:nth-of-type(2) {
    width: 40px;
  }

  span:nth-of-type(3) {
    width: 30px;
  }
}

&.active {
  span:nth-of-type(1) {
    transform: rotate(45deg) translate(10px, 10px);
    width: 40px;
  }

  span:nth-of-type(2) {
    opacity: 0;
    pointer-events: none;
  }

  span:nth-of-type(3) {
    transform: rotate(-45deg) translate(7px, -7px);
    width: 40px;
  }
}

On hover the top and bottom bars are getting shorter. When button is active, two things are happening: rotation of top and bottom bars (45 degrees) + moving. At the same time the middle bar is fading.

Also, menu tracks outside clicks. If menu is open and user clicked outside the ref, it will be closed.

import { useEffect } from 'react';

const useOnClickOutside = (ref, handler) => {
  useEffect(() => {
    const listener = event => {
      if (!ref.current || ref.current.contains(event.target)) {
        return;
      }
      handler(event);
    };
    document.addEventListener('mousedown', listener);
    return () => {
      document.removeEventListener('mousedown', listener);
    };
  }, [ref, handler]);
};

export default useOnClickOutside;
