title: Close Navigation Drawer on application start
body: <p>I have developed an application with Navigation Drawer. Whenever the application starts for the first time, it has navigation drawer open. </p>
  
  <p>Is there any way I can set it as closed? Below is the auto generated code for your understanding. </p>
