Sidenav with toggler

Bootstrap 5 Sidenav with toggler component

Responsive Sidenav with toggler built with Bootstrap 5. Use an elegant and minimalist sidenav with a toggler to gain more space.

Basic example

If you want your sidenav to hide/show elements in the slim mode, set the data-mdb-slim attribute on them - depending on value they will be either visible only in a slim or an expanded mode. Elements without this attribute will appear in both modes.
