# Brok UI block: Navbar Centered (`header-centered`)

A sticky header with a centered wordmark, navigation on the start side, and an auth + primary call-to-action pair on the end side, with a mobile menu.

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/header-centered
```

## Render it

```blade
<x-blocks.header-centered />
```

## Props

- `brand` (string, default `Acme`) — Brand wordmark text.
- `brand-href` (string, default `#`) — URL the brand mark links to.
- `links` (mixed|null, default `null`) — Array of nav links ({label, href}) shown on the start side; defaults to a built-in set of three links.
- `sign-in-cta` (string, default `Sign in`) — Text for the sign-in button.
- `sign-in-href` (string, default `#`) — URL the sign-in button points to.
- `primary-cta` (string, default `Get started`) — Text for the primary call-to-action button.
- `primary-href` (string, default `#`) — URL the call-to-action button points to.

## Use when

- Building a sticky header with the brand wordmark centered and navigation split to the start and end sides.
- Pairing a sign-in link with a primary call-to-action on the end side, collapsing into a mobile menu below md.

## Avoid when

- Use header-navbar instead when the brand should sit at the start of the bar rather than centered.

## Rules

- Render the installed block with `<x-blocks.header-centered />` 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

Building a sticky header with the brand wordmark centered and navigation split to the start and end sides.
Pairing a sign-in link with a primary call-to-action on the end side, collapsing into a mobile menu below md.

Avoid when

Use header-navbar instead when the brand should sit at the start of the bar rather than centered.

Anti-patterns

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

Anatomy: start nav links centered brand mark sign-in and CTA actions mobile menu toggle mobile menu panel

Usage

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

resources/views/welcome.blade.php Blade

<x-blocks.header-centered />

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.
