The hero section of a website serves as its welcoming beacon, setting the stage for what’s to come and capturing the attention of visitors from the moment they arrive. But in today’s multi-device world, a static hero simply won’t suffice. To truly engage users, it’s crucial to create a responsive hero section that seamlessly adapts to different screen sizes, accompanied by a navigation menu that guides users through your digital realm.
In this blog post, we embark on an exhilarating journey to craft a responsive hero section complete with a sleek navigation menu, using the versatile trio of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Through the fusion of these essential web development languages, we’ll uncover the secrets to building a visually stunning and functionally dynamic centerpiece for your website.
I would recommend you don’t just copy and paste the code, just look at the code and type by understanding it.

JavaScript Code
Create a file script.js and paste the code below.
const navbarMenu = document.getElementById("menu"); const burgerMenu = document.getElementById("burger"); const headerMenu = document.getElementById("header"); // Open Close Navbar Menu on Click Burger if (burgerMenu && navbarMenu) { burgerMenu.addEventListener("click", () => { burgerMenu.classList.toggle("is-active"); navbarMenu.classList.toggle("is-active"); }); } // Close Navbar Menu on Click Menu Links document.querySelectorAll(".menu-link").forEach((link) => { link.addEventListener("click", () => { burgerMenu.classList.remove("is-active"); navbarMenu.classList.remove("is-active"); }); }); // Change Header Background on Scrolling window.addEventListener("scroll", () => { if (this.scrollY >= 85) { headerMenu.classList.add("on-scroll"); } else { headerMenu.classList.remove("on-scroll"); } }); // Fixed Navbar Menu on Window Resize window.addEventListener("resize", () => { if (window.innerWidth > 768) { if (navbarMenu.classList.contains("is-active")) { navbarMenu.classList.remove("is-active"); } } });
