Add

npx @ava-ui/apogee add header-navigation/dropdown-featured-posts

This copies the block to src/components/apogee/blocks/header-navigation/ with everything it uses: Badge, Button, FeaturedIcon, Image, Link, NavDropdown, NavLink, Navbar. Every piece of copy is a prop, with the sample copy as its default. Pass yours, or null to hide a part; see copy is props.

Accessibility

  • Each menu is a button with a native popover: Esc or a click outside closes it and focus returns to the button. On phones the menus are rows that expand inside the menu. No JS is needed for either.
  • Photos that only decorate have an empty alt; give yours one when it carries meaning.
