SuperSlide.js
A lightweight, configurable sliding menu for your next PWA with promises. Only 2k gzipped!
This library aims to provide a highly configurable, ready-to-use sliding menu for your next web application, while delivering native-like animation performance. It was created by the OSREC Technologies while developing Bx, our invoicing, time-tracking and project management PWA.
Installation
npm install superslide.js
Usage
Reference the library in a script tag
<script src='superslide.js'></script>
Add basic HTML markup

Add styles (so we can see what's going on!)

</style>
Initialise the menu
var myMenu = new OSREC.superslide
({
