Web Components Navbar Overview

    The Ignite UI for Web Components 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.

    Web Components Navbar Example

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

    Usage

    First, you need to install the Ignite UI for Web Components by running the following command:

    npm install igniteui-webcomponents

    import { defineComponents, IgcNavbarComponent } from 'igniteui-webcomponents';

defineComponents(IgcNavbarComponent);

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

    Then in the template of IgcNavbarComponent, you can add the following code to show a basic IgcNavbarComponent with a title only:

    <igc-navbar>Navigation Title</igc-navbar>

    Content

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

    <igc-navbar>
    <igc-icon name="home" slot="start"></igc-icon>
    <h2>Sample App</h2>
    <igc-icon name="search" slot="end"></igc-icon>
    ...
</igc-navbar>

    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 {
  color: var(--ig-primary-500);
}

igc-navbar {
  background-color: var(--ig-secondary-200);
}

igc-navbar::part(middle) {
  font-family: Titillium Web, sans-serif;
  color: var(--ig-primary-500);;
}
