Was macht die Komponente?
Die Sidebar ist eine vertikale Navigationsleiste, die zur Strukturierung von Inhalten innerhalb einer Anwendung dient. Sie ermöglicht eine schnelle und intuitive Navigation zwischen verschiedenen Bereichen oder Funktionen der Anwendung. Die Sidebar kann Menüpunkte enthalten und bietet Platz für zusätzliche interaktive Elemente wie Suchfelder oder Filter.
Wann soll die Komponente eingesetzt werden?
- Wenn eine Anwendung eine permanente oder leicht zugängliche Navigation benötigt.
- Wenn Benutzer:innen schnell zwischen mehreren Hauptbereichen wechseln müssen.
- Wenn zusätzliche Funktionen oder Filter neben dem Hauptinhalt verfügbar sein sollen.
Regeln
- Die Sidebar kann mit der Icon-Sidebar kombiniert werden. In diesem Fall soll entweder die Icon-Sidebar oder Sidebar die Farbvariante «Milk» verwenden, damit sich die zwei Komponenten visuell differenzieren lassen.

The <sbb-sidebar> is a component that can display items on the left or right side of the viewport.
Every slotted content will be displayed, but it's designed to be used for navigation.
The sidebar components are designed to add side content to a fullscreen app.
To set up a sidebar we use three components: <sbb-sidebar-container> which acts as a
structural container for our content and sidebar, <sbb-sidebar-content> which represents
the main content, and <sbb-sidebar> which represents the added side content.
Per <sbb-sidebar-container> it's allowed to place one <sbb-sidebar> with position="start"
and one <sbb-sidebar> with position="end". More than one sidebar of the same position value
is not allowed.
<sbb-sidebar-container>

</sbb-sidebar-content>
</sbb-sidebar-container>
The <sbb-sidebar-title> component extends the sbb-title component.
Use it inside the <sbb-sidebar> to display a header in the sidebar with a title.
The slot title-section is automatically assigned to be properly positioned on the <sbb-sidebar>.
In scenarios where the visual representation needs to be different from the semantic meaning of
the title level, it is possible to use the visualLevel property (default value: 5).
<sbb-sidebar role="navigation">
<sbb-sidebar-title>A describing title of the sidebar</sbb-sidebar-title>
</sbb-sidebar>
The <sbb-sidebar-close-button> component extends the sbb-secondary-button component.
Use it in inside the sbb-sidebar
to display a close button in the sidebar.
The slot title-section is automatically assigned to be properly positioned on the <sbb-sidebar>.
Clicking the close button closes the parent sidebar.
<sbb-sidebar role="navigation">
<sbb-sidebar-close-button></sbb-sidebar-close-button>
Content
</sbb-sidebar>
Opening and closing a sidebar
A <sbb-sidebar> can be opened or closed using the open(), close() and toggle() methods.
The opened state can also be set via the opened property.
Listening to the open and close events allows to react after transitions have been executed.
If for a certain reason the opening or closing should be prevented,
it's possible to call preventDefault() on the beforeopen or beforeclose events.
It is strongly recommended to use a button to toggle the sidebar.
Even with mode="side" and an opened sidebar at larger sizes, the sidebar will collapse if there is not enough space.
In this case a toggle button is strongly recommended, otherwise the user will not be able to open the sidebar.
Ideally the button can be placed in the <sbb-header>.
Close button
By slotting a <sbb-sidebar-close-button> into the <sbb-sidebar>, a close button will be shown.
<sbb-sidebar role="navigation">
<sbb-sidebar-close-button></sbb-sidebar-close-button>
Sidebar Content
</sbb-sidebar>
Title
We recommend to give the sidebar a title by using the <sbb-sidebar-title> element.
<sbb-sidebar role="navigation">
<sbb-sidebar-title>Title</sbb-sidebar-title>
</sbb-sidebar>
Mode
The <sbb-sidebar> can be rendered in one of two different ways based on the mode property.
| Mode | Description |
|---|---|
side | Sidebar appears side-by-side with the main content, shrinking the main content's width to make space for the sidebar. |
over | Sidebar floats over the primary content, which is covered by a backdrop |
If no mode is specified, side is used by default. The over sidebar mode shows a backdrop,
while the side mode does not.
If there is not enough space available and the mode is side, the sidebar collapses and automatically
changes to a forced over mode (the mode property itself will not change).
Whenever there is enough space available, the <sbb-sidebar> changes back to mode side.
At maximum, one <sbb-sidebar> with mode="over" should be opened simultaneously on a page.
<sbb-sidebar mode="over" role="navigation"></sbb-sidebar>
Style
If the <sbb-sidebar-container> is placed after the <sbb-header>, an automatic margin-block-start is added.
In other contexts you may need to set the margin manually, e.g. margin-block-start: var(--sbb-header-height);.
Color
Per default, the <sbb-sidebar> receives a white background color. As alternative,
it's possible to set the color property to milk.
If using the <sbb-sidebar> along with a <sbb-icon-sidebar>, it's recommended to alternate
the background colors (white / milk) for a clear visual distinction.
<sbb-sidebar color="milk" role="navigation"></sbb-sidebar>
Position
An <sbb-sidebar> can be positioned via position property and its values start or end.
To display the sidebar on the right side, place the <sbb-sidebar>
after the <sbb-sidebar-content> in the DOM which guarantees a logical order for focusing.
<sbb-sidebar-container>
<sbb-sidebar-content role="main">Content</sbb-sidebar-content>
<sbb-sidebar position="end" role="navigation">Sidebar Content</sbb-sidebar>
</sbb-sidebar-container>
Size
The <sbb-sidebar> has a default width. The width can
be explicitly set via CSS:
sbb-sidebar {
width: 200px;
}
Accessibility
If the sidebar is on mode="over", the sidebar acts like an overlay element with an activated focus trap.
Roles
The <sbb-sidebar> and <sbb-sidebar-content> should each be given an appropriate role attribute
depending on the context in which they are used.
For example, a <sbb-sidebar> that contains links
to other pages might be marked role="navigation", whereas one that contains a table of
contents about might be marked as role="directory". If there is no more specific role that
describes your sidebar, role="region" is recommended.
Similarly, the <sbb-sidebar-content> should be given a role based on what it contains. If it
represents the primary content of the page, it may make sense to mark it role="main". If no more
specific role makes sense, role="region" is again a good fallback.
Active / Current State
Whenever an action item has an active state, it's recommended to set aria-current="page"
respectively accessibility-current="page" for link elements.
For link elements, the class sbb-active can be used to visually display an active state.
<sbb-sidebar role="navigation">
<sbb-link-list>
<sbb-block-link>Link 1</sbb-block-link>
<sbb-block-link class="sbb-active" accessibility-current="page">Link 2</sbb-block-link>
</sbb-link-list>
</sbb-sidebar
Trigger Button
If a button should trigger the opening or closing, certain
accessibility information on the trigger button should be set.
aria-controls="id of the sidebar"(id should be linked to the sidebar)aria-expanded="true"oraria-expanded="false"(should be updated to the opened state of the sidebar)aria-label(Describes the toggle action)
<sbb-header expanded scroll-origin="content" size="s">
<sbb-header-button
id="toggle-button"
icon-name="arrows-right-left-small"
aria-controls="sidebar"
aria-expanded="true"
@click="${() => document.querySelector('#sidebar')?.toggle() }"
>
Toggle sidebar
</sbb-header-button>
</sbb-header>
<sbb-sidebar-container>
<sbb-sidebar
id="sidebar"
role="navigation"
@open="${() => document.querySelector('#toggle-button')?.setAttribute('aria-expanded', 'true') }"
@close="${() => document.querySelector('#toggle-button')?.setAttribute('aria-expanded', 'false') }"
>
<sbb-link-list>
<sbb-block-link>Link 1</sbb-block-link>
<sbb-block-link class="sbb-active" accessibility-current="page">Link 2</sbb-block-link>
</sbb-link-list>
</sbb-sidebar>
<sbb-sidebar-content role="main" id="content">Content</sbb-sidebar-content>
</sbb-sidebar-container>
Controlling initial focus
The first element with the attribute sbb-focus-initial will receive focus on opening.
If the attribute is not used, the first focusable element receives focus (recommended).
<sbb-sidebar-container>
<sbb-sidebar role="navigation">
<sbb-link-list>
<sbb-block-link>Link 1</sbb-block-link>
<sbb-block-link sbb-focus-initial>Link 2</sbb-block-link>
</sbb-link-list>
</sbb-sidebar>
<sbb-sidebar-content role="main">Content</sbb-sidebar-content>
</sbb-sidebar-container>
Combine with <sbb-icon-sidebar>
It's possible the combine the <sbb-sidebar> with the <sbb-icon-sidebar> as following:
<sbb-icon-sidebar-container>
<sbb-icon-sidebar>Icon sidebar content</sbb-icon-sidebar>
<sbb-icon-sidebar-content>
<sbb-sidebar-container>
<sbb-sidebar role="navigation">Sidebar content</sbb-sidebar>
<sbb-sidebar-content role="main">Content</sbb-sidebar-content>
</sbb-sidebar-container>
</sbb-icon-sidebar-content>
</sbb-icon-sidebar-container>
Use with <sbb-header>
In order to correctly display the shadow of the header when scrolled,
you need to set the scrollOrigin property of the <sbb-header>.
The value should be either the id of the <sbb-sidebar-content>
or the element reference itself. Note that when using nested sidebars, it's required to
continuously update the scrollOrigin property with the id/reference of the
currently active <sbb-sidebar-content>. Also, depending
on how e.g. a RouterOutlet (Angular) is used, it may also be necessary to update the scrollOrigin
property when the navigation changes.
<sbb-header scroll-origin="content">...</sbb-header>
<sbb-sidebar-container>
<sbb-sidebar role="navigation">...</sbb-sidebar>
<sbb-sidebar-content id="content" role="main">Content</sbb-sidebar-content>
</sbb-sidebar-container>
