How to Create a Sticky Nav with Vanilla JavaScript

Hi, My name is Andy Leverenz and I work as a Product Designer at Dribbble. For fun I design, code, and write. Check out my blog called Web-Crunch https://web-crunch.com where I publish design and development tutorials with the occasional v-log.

Welcome to the next installment of my Let's Build: With JavaScript series. In this video I'll be walking you through how to create a simple but dynamic sticky nav. using a combination of HTML, SCSS, and JavaScript.

The focus of these series of videos will be on using vanilla JavaScript to start. I'll strive to not reach for frameworks until absolutely necessary.

The sticky nav. will ultimately respond to a users scroll event. Each time they scroll past a certain point we can listen for when they reach an area as defined by our navigation bar. From there we can add a class to our HTML with JavaScript and then do some styling to make the experience fluid and seamless.

Check out my process and more in this video. If you have suggestions for future videos or ideas for components to build please let me know in the comments. Thanks for watching!
