Hello guys, we are going to be creating a humbuger button using html css and javascript.

## we would create a folder in your desktop and open it on your  text editor(vsCode etc) 
when the folder is open on your vscode create a file `index.html` 
and write the code below

```
 <html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Document</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
</head>
<body>

    <div class="container">

        <div class="menu_icon_box" id="myLInks" >
            <div class="line1"></div>
            <div class="line2"></div>
            <div class="line3"></div>
        </div>     
        <div class="box">
            <nav>
                <ul>
                    <li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#">Services</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#">Testimonials</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#">About Us</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#">Contact Us</a></li>
                </ul>
            </nav>
        </div>
    </div>
    <script src="script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
```
It Should look like this

- Remeber to link your css like this 

```
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
```

 
## Now we add our css crate a file `style.css`

Inside the` style.css ` we will start by stying the css

```
 *{
    padding: 0;
    margin: 0;
    box-sizing: border-box;
}

.container {
    width: 100%;
    height: 100vh;
    background-color: #284e95;
}

.menu_icon_box {
     z-index: 2;
    width: fit-content;
    height: auto;
    background-color: #fff;
    margin: 30px;
    position: absolute;
    border-radius: 4px;
    cursor: pointer;
}

.line1,
.line2,
.line3 {
    width: 40px;
    height: 4px;
    margin: 10px 8px;
    background-color: #000;
    border-radius: 50px;
    transition: 0.2s;
}

.active .line1 {
    transform: translate(0px, 15px)rotate(45deg);
}

.active .line2 {
    opacity: 0;
}

.active .line3 {
    transform: translate(0px, -15px)rotate(-45deg);
}
.box {
    width: fit-content;
    height: 100vh;
    background-color: #fff;
    position: relative;
    text-align: left;
    z-index: 1;
    opacity: 0;
    left: -500px;
    pointer-events: none;
    transition: 0.3s;
}

nav {
    padding-top: 100px;
}

nav ul {
    margin: 0px 30px;
}

nav ul li {
    list-style: none;
    margin-bottom: 30px;
    transition: 0.2s;
}

nav ul li:hover {
    background-color: #c6c6c66f;
    border-radius: 8px;
}

nav ul li a {
    color: #000;
    font-size: 28px;
    padding: 10px 30px;
    display:inline;
    text-decoration: none;
}
        .active_box { 
            opacity: 1;
            left: 0px;
            pointer-events: fill;
        }  
```
After styling it should look like this

## Lets add our javaScript 

- we create a file `script.css` and we add a link in the html below the code _close the the body tag_

```
  <script src="script.js"></script>
```
**Lets Start **

```
 let menu_icon_box = document.querySelector(".menu_icon_box");
        let box = document.querySelector(".box");

//for making it click 
        menu_icon_box.onclick = function(){
            menu_icon_box.classList.toggle("active");
            box.classList.toggle("active_box");
        }

```
