Using navigation menu

Items show stable, varied blob adornments by default. Set adornment={false} to hide, supply {shape,color,icon,effect}, or pass a custom icon element.
Use NavigationMenuLink for destinations and set active for the current page.
Compose triggers, content, and a viewport when a destination group needs an expandable panel.

API

Compose the exported parts below. The prop types are read from the React source during the registry build.

Native element or underlying primitive props are inherited where declared, including accessible labels, event handlers and refs.

NavigationMenuIndicatorProps

Accessibility

Give the navigation a useful label and use actual links for destinations.
Keep current-page state and the supplied trigger behavior when composing custom link content.

States and appearance

selectedresthoverfocusactive

For conditional content, keep a MotionPresence boundary around keyed MotionSurface children. The shared entrance and exit states work with native primitives and respect your motion preference.

Try pointer and keyboard interaction, and switch the appearance control in the navigation to compare light and dark mode. Motion respects reduced motion preferences.
