React Navbar Overview

    The Ignite UI for React Navbar informs the user of their current position in an app. The Navigation Bar can also provide links to quick actions such as search or favorite, helping users navigate smoothly through an application without trying to move to invalid routes or states. The bar sits at the top of the container it is placed in.

    React Navbar Example

    The following example represents a IgrNavbar with icons and text header:

    Usage

    Before using the IgrNavbar, you need to register it as follows:

    For a complete introduction to the Ignite UI for React, read the Getting Started topic.

    First, you need to the install the corresponding Ignite UI for React npm package by running the following command:

    You will then need to import the IgrNavbar and its necessary CSS like so:

    import { IgrNavbar } from 'igniteui-react';
import 'igniteui-webcomponents/themes/light/bootstrap.css';

    <IgrNavbar>
    <span>Navigation Title</span>
</IgrNavbar>

    Content

    You can enhance the IgrNavbar component by adding IgrIcon or other components at the start or end position as content, allowing users to navigate to key positions directly from the bar:

     <IgrNavbar>
    <div slot="start">
        <IgrIcon name="home" collection="material" />
    </div>
    <h2>Sample App</h2>
    <div slot="end">
        <IgrIcon name="search" collection="material" />
    </div>
    ...
</IgrNavbar>

    Styling

    The NavBar component exposes several CSS parts, giving you full control over its style:

    Name Description
    base The base wrapper of the navigation bar.
    start The left aligned icon container.
    middle The navigation bar title container.
    end The right aligned action icons container. 
    igc-icon {

}

igc-navbar::part(middle) {
