Making the Bootstrap dashboard example sidebar visible/available on mobile

Question

The Boostrap dashboard example hides the sidebar navigation completely (not collapsed or stacked) when screen width is less than 768px. How would you go about supporting mobile with such a setup?

Answer 1

Bootstrap 4

Create a responsive navbar sidebar "drawer" in Bootstrap 4?

Bootstrap 3

Another option is to combine the Dashboard and the "off-canvas" sidebar templates. This layout allows the sidebar to be toggled off/on screen at smaller widths...

@media screen and (max-width: 768px) {
  .row-offcanvas {
    position: relative;
    -webkit-transition: all 0.25s ease-out;
    -moz-transition: all 0.25s ease-out;
    transition: all 0.25s ease-out;
  }

  .row-offcanvas-left
  .sidebar-offcanvas {
    left: -33%;
  }

  .row-offcanvas-left.active {
    left: 33%;
  }

  .sidebar-offcanvas {
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    width: 33%;
    margin-left: 10px;
  }
}


/* Sidebar navigation */
.nav-sidebar {
  background-color: #f5f5f5;
  margin-right: -15px;
  margin-bottom: 20px;
  margin-left: -15px;
}
.nav-sidebar > li > a {
  padding-right: 20px;
  padding-left: 20px;
}
.nav-sidebar > .active > a {
  color: #fff;
  background-color: #428bca;
}
