Hamburger Button


The hamburger button is a navigation icon made up of three parallel horizontal lines normally placed at the top of a mobile website or application. Tapping or clicking on the button opens a navigation menu with a list of items to choose from. The name hamburger button came from the similarity of the three lines to a hamburger's top and bottom buns with the burger in the middle.
