Menu

Introduction

The Menu component represents a navigation element that allows users to create interactive menus within their forms or applications. It is based on the Nav and is used to provide a structured and organized way to navigate through different sections or pages.

This component is especially helpful to create navigation menus, sidebar menus, or other similar formats for presenting a list of options or actions. You can customize the appearance, layout, and behavior of the Menu component. The available customization properties are introduced and described below.
