Bootstrap is a free and open-source collection of CSS and JavaScript/jQuery code used for creating responsive & dynamic websites layout and web applications. Offcanvas is one of the features of Bootstrap to make web pages more attractive, along with enhancing the user experience.
Offcanvas is a sidebar component that helps to toggle the view using Javascript, to appear from the left, right or bottom edge of the viewport. In order to toggle the view, the button can be used as the trigger, which is declared with the specific element, along with using the data attribute to utilize it for invoking the JavaScript. It is similar to the Bootstrap Modal, where only single offcanvas can be displayed at a time. Navigation throughout the page can be done using offcanvas functionality.
Offcanvas Component: Offcanvas contain a header with a close button and the body part. It's good to include a close button or you can provide an explicit source to close it.
Syntax:
<div class="offcanvas offcanvas-start"
id="sidebar">
<div class="offcanvas-header">
<h1 class="offcanvas-title">
Heading
</h1>
<button type="button"
class="btn-close">
</button>
</div>
<div class="offcanvas-body">
<p>Content Body</p>
</div>
</div>
Offcanvas Component Class:
- offcanvas: This class is used to create offcanvas but it hides the content.
- offcanvas show: This class is used to show the offcanvas content in the viewport.
- offcanvas-header: This class is used for the head section of offcanvas.
- offcanvas-body: This class is used to add content to the offcanvas body parts.
Example: This example describes the use of the Basic Offcanvas in Bootstrap.

Output:
Offcanvas Placement: The Offcanvas placement can be used to position the offcanvas in various ways, such as top, bottom, right, & start of the viewport. There is no default placement for offcanvas components.
Syntax:
<div class="offcanvas offcanvas-start"
id="offcanvasStart" >
</div>
<div class="offcanvas offcanvas-top"
id="offcanvasTop" >
</div>
<div class="offcanvas offcanvas-end"
id="offcanvasRight" >
</div>
<div class="offcanvas offcanvas-bottom"
id="offcanvasBottom">
</div>
Offcanvas Placement Class:
- offcanvas-start: This class is used to place offcanvas on the left side of the viewport.
- offcanvas-end: This class is used to place offcanvas on the right side of the viewport.
- offcanvas-top: This class is used to place offcanvas on the top side of the viewport.
- offcanvas-bottom: This class is used to place offcanvas on the bottom side of the viewport.
