Drawer Component

A smooth, accessible drawer component built with CSS and Tailwind CSS. Create sliding off-canvas panels for navigation, filters, and side menus. Supports multiple positions, overlay backdrops, and toggle controls for mobile-friendly, zero-JavaScript sidebar navigation patterns.

Drawer components slide in from the sides of the viewport to reveal hidden navigation, filters, or additional content. Built on the native HTML dialog element with CSS animations, drawers provide a responsive way to manage layouts on mobile and desktop devices. The Frutjam drawer system supports customizable widths, smooth animations, and overlay backgrounds for professional sidebar navigation.
