This Line-Animated Hamburger Menu I thought was really cool, the lines in this navigation menu moved as if they were paint brushes. As I read the CSS code, it appears that the transition has a value called "stroke-dasharray" and within each line has its own coordinate to move in a direction you wish.
Link to LocationThis webpage has loads of ideas and tips that you can use as inspiration, this page holds ten examples of different ways to do a navigation menu, its shows different transitions on how you want your navagation menu to appear and even a list of different styles of hamburger menus you can use. My favorite tip was number 5 on the list as it shows a bunch of Hamburger menu animations that look really cool when you click them and could be very useful when trying learn a new way to animate the icon. I really like the design of the 7th example, the navagation menu is curved like a circle when the user opens it.
Link to LocationThis page was also really cool, as it showed a lot more creative ways to have a navigation menu. I think a lot of theses examples are visually appealing and would make any page look very interesting and exciting for a user. Personally, when I came across number 4 I was very intrigued on the design and idea of such a menu. When the user clicks on the menu, the page tilts to the side and on the opening corner appears a menu as if it was a sheet of paper under another one. The page includes more examples of hamburger menu animations and other creative ideas for menus. Another one I thought was cool was using :hover to open up the menu, the animation first shows a hamburger menu but when you hover over it, it animates into a Atomic symbol that moves.
Link to LocationOverall, It is very interesting to me how much you can do with HTML, CSS and, Javascript to make menus and animations like these. After viewing all of these examples it inspired me to figure out my own ideas and transitions for a navigation menu. Almost every webpage includes a navigation bar so I think it is important to learn and gain ideas off of these pages and also by practice considering that everyone who uses your webpage will interact with your navigation menu.
