## What it is
Slideout.js is a dependency-free JavaScript library that adds a touch-driven slideout (off-canvas) navigation menu to mobile web apps. It uses CSS transforms and transitions, supports native scrolling, and weighs only about 2 KB minified and gzipped.

## Use cases
- add a swipeable sidebar menu to a mobile web app
- implement an off-canvas navigation drawer with touch gestures
- create a hamburger menu that slides in on touch devices
- add a slide-out nav to a responsive site without dependencies
- build a lightweight mobile navigation menu with native scrolling

## When to choose
- you need a tiny, dependency-free off-canvas menu for mobile web
- you want touch-gesture-driven navigation with CSS transform performance
- your project uses plain JavaScript without a framework

## When to avoid
- you use a modern framework with built-in navigation components
- you need an actively developed library with recent updates
- you need accessible, keyboard-driven navigation beyond touch input
