Overlapping Panels

Gestures-driven navigation UI for React.js

NPM

This is a Javascript / React implementation of Discord's OverlappingPanels.

Gesture-based navigation allows us to create more natural interactions and avoids conflict with native gesture navigation.

The current implementation relies almost entirely on CSS, inspired by bree's css-drawer-snap. By using CSS scroll snap we rely on the browser to resolve which scrollbar should be scrolled at what time, so you avoid sidebars opening when scrolling vertically through something such as messages or when scrolling sideways through another element.

Install

npm install --save react-overlapping-panels
yarn add react-overlapping-panels

Usage

import React, { Component } from 'react'

import { OverlappingPanels, ShowIf } from 'react-overlapping-panels'
import 'react-overlapping-panels/dist/index.css'

function MyComponent() {
    return (
        <OverlappingPanels
            width={720}
            height={640}
            leftPanel={{
                component: <span>I am the left panel.</span>,
                width: 300
            }}
            rightPanel={{
                component: <span>I am the right panel.</span>,
                width: 250
            }}
            bottomNav={{
                component: <span>hello!</span>,
                height: 40,
                showIf: ShowIf.Left
            }}>
            <h1>main content!</h1>
        </OverlappingPanels>
    )
}
