There is a sidebar on my website that can expand or collapse when a button is clicked. I have successfully saved its state in the localStorage, but there is a small issue that I need help with.
When the page loads and there is no saved state in the localStorage, the sidebar collapses briefly and then expands. The default state should be expanded when there is no localStorage state. I want the sidebar to load in the expanded state without collapsing first. I have tried to solve this issue with my code but have been unsuccessful. I even tried combining my code with code from a post on SO, but it still doesn't work.
If you want to look at the full code, you can find it on Codepen.
Here is the code snippet (please note that localStorage won't work in this environment):
$('document').ready(function() {
if (typeof window.isMinified === "undefined") {
window.isMinified = false;
}
const body = $('#body');
$("#sidebar-toggler").on("click", function () {
if (window.isMinified === false) {
// localStorage.setItem('menu-closed', !$(body).hasClass("sidebar-minified"));
body.removeClass("sidebar-minified-out").addClass("sidebar-minified");
window.isMinified = true;
} else {
// localStorage.setItem('menu-closed', !$(body).hasClass("sidebar-minified"));
body.removeClass("sidebar-minified").addClass("sidebar-minified-out");
window.isMinified = false;
}
});
const state = // localStorage.getItem('menu-closed');
if (state === null) {
$(body).removeClass('sidebar-minified');
} else {
const closed = state === "true" ? true : false;
if (!closed) {
$(body).removeClass('sidebar-minified');
}
}
});#body {
background: #fff;
transition: all 0.3s;
}
aside.left-sidebar{
background-color: #2c0963;
height: 100vh;
}
.sidebar-minified-out .left-sidebar {
width: 180px;
transition: width .3s ease-in;
}
.sidebar-minified .left-sidebar {
width: 75px;
transition: width .3s ease-in;
}
.sidebar-toggle {
font-weight: 300;
font-size: 15px;
cursor: pointer;
height: 30px;
position: absolute;
left: 20%;
