Open the [live sticky glass navbar demo](/demos/sticky-glass-navbar/index.html) — scroll, resize, and open the mobile menu. ## What you will build This free Get Code pack ships a production-ready navigation pattern used on modern SaaS and agency sites: - Sticky header that stays at the top of the viewport - Frosted glass background that activates after a few pixels of scroll - Gradient scroll-progress strip (amber → coral → teal) - Active section highlighting as you scroll - Responsive hamburger menu with an accessible drawer on mobile - Friendly color system (warm amber CTAs, soft coral, cool teal on deep ink) No frameworks.
