# Brok UI block: App Navbar Tabs (`app-navbar-tabs`)

A two-row in-app navbar — brand, notifications and user menu above an underlined section-tab bar.

Brok UI is a Laravel Blade registry. `ui:add` copies this block into the app as plain Blade the app owns; it composes installed `<brok:*>` primitives and semantic design tokens.

## Install

```bash
php artisan ui:add blocks/app-navbar-tabs
```

## Render it

```blade
<x-blocks.app-navbar-tabs />
```

## Props

- `brand` (string, default `Acme`)
- `workspace` (string, default `Marketing site`)
- `tabs` (mixed|null, default `null`)
- `user-name` (string, default `Jane Smith`)
- `user-initials` (string, default `JS`)
- `user-src` (mixed|null, default `null`)
- `notify-count` (int, default `4`)

## Use when

- Topping an application with a two-row navbar: brand, notifications and user menu on top, an underlined section-tab bar below.
- Showing which workspace or project is active via a breadcrumb-style label beside the brand mark.

## Avoid when

- Use app-navbar-default or app-navbar-search for a single-row navbar without a section-tab row.

## Rules

- Render the installed block with `<x-blocks.app-navbar-tabs />` and pass data through its props; edit the copied file only for structural changes.
- Keep the semantic design tokens (`bg-background`, `text-muted-foreground`); never swap in raw colour utilities.
- Keep the `data-slot` attributes and the logical (start/end) spacing so the markup still mirrors under `dir="rtl"`.

Guidance

Use when

Topping an application with a two-row navbar: brand, notifications and user menu on top, an underlined section-tab bar below.
Showing which workspace or project is active via a breadcrumb-style label beside the brand mark.

Avoid when

Use app-navbar-default or app-navbar-search for a single-row navbar without a section-tab row.

Anti-patterns

Do not replace semantic props with conflicting utility classes.
Do not remove labels, focus styles, or state attributes.

Anatomy: root app-navbar-tabs

Usage

Render the block as a component, passing data where useful:

resources/views/welcome.blade.php Blade

<x-blocks.app-navbar-tabs />

Built from primitives

Composes <brok:*> Semantic tokens Re-themeable RTL-ready

This block composes installed <brok:*> primitives and semantic design tokens only — it does not reimplement any primitive. Re-theme it (light, dark, admin, customer) by editing CSS variables; flip the preview to RTL to confirm it mirrors.
