Not a comment on the idea. I like the UX execution on mobile. The menu on the left is always visible, in the background. The content is swiped left / right to reveal the menu.

It’s counterintuitive at first, but within a second you work it out. Works well on iPhone 6s safari.

Thanks, it's mostly gotten negative feedback, which I understand as far as the pure styling (color, font, etc.), but I did spend a lot of time on the "structural" aspects of the layout so they work well on all devices without any real per-screen-size logic. Thanks for noticing! It was a lot harder than it probably looks. I will probably spruce up the styling going forward.
