Collapsing Sidebar Nav
A dashboard sidebar that collapses from a labelled list to a slim icon rail: the width eases, labels fade and slide away a beat before the edge arrives, and the active item's accent pill shrinks to a dot. Collapsed items show their label as a tooltip on hover.
The mechanic
`#nav { width: var(--w) }` transitions 0.3 s `cubic-bezier(.2,.8,.2,1)` between 240 px and 68 px. Labels have `opacity` and `translateX(−8px)` transitions that run 0.15 s with no delay when collapsing and a 0.15 s delay when expanding, so text is never clipped against the moving edge. The active pill's background is on the item, and its width follows the panel.
How to use it
From prompt to a block in your page.
- 01Try the component
The preview is the shipped element inside a neutral demo page. Hover, click, focus: the one interaction it is about is live.
- 02Pick a palette
Token sets re-tint it live. The prompt carries the one you chose.
- 03Pick your stack
A paste-in snippet, or a component for Next.js, React, Vue, Astro, WordPress, Shopify or Webflow.
- 04Copy the prompt
It quotes the markup, styles and script verbatim with the tokens and the rules that keep it self-contained.
- 05Mount it in your layout
It inherits your page's font and width; the tokens live on :root; several instances share one script.
