    All seven handle the scroll state, the mobile breakpoint and keyboard focus. Copy the file and replace the link array with your own routes.

    Picking a navigation pattern

    Navigation is the one component where being interesting is usually a mistake. People arrive with a learned model of where things are, and a navbar that violates it costs them time even when it looks better. The safe default is a logo on the left, links in the centre or right, and one visually distinct call to action at the far right.

    The decision that actually matters is whether the bar stays fixed while scrolling. Fixed navigation helps on long marketing pages where the call to action would otherwise scroll away, and hurts on content pages where it eats vertical space on small screens. If you fix it, shrink it after the first scroll so it takes less room once someone is reading.

    Mega menus only pay for themselves past roughly fifteen destinations. Below that they add a hover target and a layer of hesitation for no benefit. If your site has six pages, a plain row of links will outperform anything more elaborate.

    Whatever you pick, check it with a keyboard. A navbar where the mobile drawer cannot be closed with escape, or where tab order jumps into hidden links, is broken for a meaningful slice of visitors and for the crawlers that follow focusable elements.

    Frequently asked questions

    How do I make a sticky navbar in Tailwind CSS?

    Apply sticky top-0 with a z-index above your page content, and give the element a background colour so text does not show through as it scrolls. The sticky navbars in this collection also add a backdrop blur and a border once the page has scrolled past a threshold.

    Do these navbars work on mobile?

    Yes. Each one includes a mobile breakpoint with either a hamburger drawer or a collapsed menu, with focus trapping and escape-to-close handled in the component rather than left to you.

    Can I add a mega menu to these navbars?

    One of the seven is a mega menu with multi-column panels and hover intent. If you want to add panels to a simpler navbar, the mega menu component shows the positioning and animation approach you would copy.

    Are the navbars accessible?

    The interactive navbars use semantic nav and button elements, expose aria-expanded on toggles, and keep focus inside an open mobile drawer until it is dismissed.
