HTML Tutorial: How to Make a Full Screen Menu in Webflow

Welcome to this step-by-step tutorial on creating a full screen menu in Webflow! In this guide, we will walk you through the process of designing and implementing a responsive and visually stunning menu that will enhance the user experience of your website. So, let’s get started!

Step 1: Setting up the HTML Structure

To begin with, we need to set up the HTML structure for our full screen menu. We’ll be using a combination of HTML and CSS to achieve our desired result.

First, create a new section in your HTML code:

<section id="fullscreen-menu">
  <div class="menu-container">
    <ul class="menu-list">
      <li><a href="#">Home</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Services</a></li>
      <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>
    </ul>
  </div>
</section>

In this code snippet, we have created a section element with the ID “fullscreen-menu”. Inside it, we have a div with the class “menu-container” which will contain our menu items. The actual menu items are represented by an unordered list (ul) with each item wrapped in a list item (li) element.

Step 2: Styling the Full Screen Menu

Now that we have set up the HTML structure, let’s move on to styling our menu. We’ll use CSS to achieve the desired full screen effect.

#fullscreen-menu {
  position: fixed;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  background-color: #000;
  z-index: 9999;
}menu-container {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
}menu-list {
  list-style-type: none;
}menu-list li {
  margin-bottom: 20px;
}menu-list li a {
  color: #fff;
}

In the above CSS code, we have styled the #fullscreen-menu section to cover the entire screen by setting its position to fixed and its width and height to 100%. We have also given it a background color of black (#000) and a high z-index value to ensure it appears on top of other elements.

The .menu-container class is used to center our menu items both vertically and horizontally within the section. The .menu-list class removes default list styling, while .menu-list li adds some margin at the bottom of each list item. Lastly, .menu-list li a sets the text color of our menu links to white (#fff).

Step 3: Adding JavaScript Interactivity

To make our full screen menu interactive, we’ll add some JavaScript code that toggles its visibility when a specific button or link is clicked.

<script>
const toggleMenu = () => {
    const menu = document.getElementById('fullscreen-menu');
    menu.classList.toggle('active');
};

document.getElementById('toggle-menu').addEventListener('click', toggleMenu);
</script>

In the JavaScript code above, we define a toggleMenu function that toggles the ‘active’ class on our #fullscreen-menu element. We then add an event listener to the element with the ID ‘toggle-menu’ (which could be a button or link) and call the toggleMenu function when it is clicked.

Step 4: Testing and Customizing

Now that we have completed the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript setup, it’s time to test our full screen menu in Webflow. Preview your website and click on the designated button or link to see your menu in action!

You can further customize your full screen menu by adding transitions, animations, different styling options, or additional functionality based on your specific requirements. The possibilities are endless!
