Hello friends, welcome back to my blog. Today in this blog post, I am going to show you, Build a fixed sidebar Template using Reactjs and Bootstrap 4 vertical navigation.
For reactjs new comers, please check the below link:
Friends now I proceed onwards and here is the working code snippet for Build a fixed sidebar Template using Reactjs and Bootstrap 4 vertical navigation and please use this carefully to avoid the mistakes:
1. Firstly, we need fresh reactjs setup and for that, we need to run below commands into out terminal and also we should have latest node version installed on our system:
npx create-react-app reacttepmate cd reacttepmate npm start
2. Now we need to run below commands into our project terminal to get bootstrap and related modules into our reactjs application:
npm install bootstrap --save npm install jquery --save npm install jquery-slim npm start //For start project again
3. Finally for the main output, we need to add below code into our reacttemplate/src/App.js file or if you have fresh setup then you can replace projectname/src/App.js file code with below code:
import React from 'react';
import './App.css';
//Importing bootstrap and other modules
import 'bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css';
import 'bootstrap/dist/js/bootstrap.min.js';
import 'jquery/dist/jquery.min.js';
import "jquery/dist/jquery.slim.min.js";
import $ from 'jquery';
class Home extends React.Component {
componentDidMount(){
$('#sidebarCollapse').on('click', function() {
$('#sidebar, #content').toggleClass('active');
});
}
render() {
return (

4. Now friends, we need to below code into our reacttemplate/src/App.css file for some custom styling:
/*

*/
.vertical-nav {
min-width: 17rem;
width: 17rem;
height: 100vh;
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
box-shadow: 3px 3px 10px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
transition: all 0.4s;
}
.page-content {
width: calc(100% - 17rem);
margin-left: 17rem;
transition: all 0.4s;
}
/* for toggle behavior */
#sidebar.active {
margin-left: -17rem;
}
#content.active {
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
}
@media (max-width: 768px) {
#sidebar {
margin-left: -17rem;
}
#sidebar.active {
margin-left: 0;
}
#content {
