I'm creating a full page navigation shade for my site so that it's the same across all devices. At the moment I have two buttons, one for when the shade is in view and one for when it isn't. I'm wondering if it would be better to have one button always present so it can be animated? I'd be aiming for something like the squeeze animation here but I'm not sure how I'd go about animating that across the two buttons vs just one - or how you'd create it from scratch.
Here's what I'm working with;
const navButtons = document.querySelectorAll('button.nav-action');
const siteNav = document.querySelector('.site-nav');
function onClick(event) {
siteNav.classList.toggle('active');
}
navButtons.forEach(button => button.addEventListener('click', onClick));
.site-header {
height: 80px;
background-color: #FFFFFF;
display: inline-flex;
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
z-index: 1;
box-shadow: 0px 0.5px 10px #000000;
}
.site-header-fill {
height: 80px;
}
.site-logo-container {
height: 60px;
margin-left: 20px;
margin-right: auto;
margin-top: 10px;
margin-bottom: 10px;
display: block;
float: left;
}
.site-logo {
height: 60px;
width: auto;
float: left;
}
.site-nav-action-container {
height: 50px;
width: 50px;
max-width: 50px;
margin-left: 10px;
margin-right: 10px;
margin-top: 15px;
margin-bottom: 15px;
display: block;
float: right;
text-align: right;
}
.site-nav {
height: 100%;
left: 0px;
position: fixed;
top: 0px;
width: 100%;
background: #3399ff;
z-index: 2;
display: none;
}
.site-nav.active {
display: block;
}
.site-nav-content {

transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
}

At the moment the shade now functions to be visible or not based on button pressed but I wonder if having one button is the way to go or if placing the icon outside of a button would work best.
Ideally the hamburger would animate as the shade is revealed from the top but I'll work on that once a sensible approach to the button is sorted. Any help would be appreciated because I clearly don't know what I'm doing here.
Thanks in advance.
