# Brok UI block: Navbar (`header-navbar`)

A responsive top navigation bar with brand, links, a call-to-action, and an Alpine-powered mobile menu, in a full-width bar or a detached floating pill shape.

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-navbar
```

## Render it

```blade
<x-blocks.header-navbar shape="bar" />
```

## Props

- `shape` (bar|pill, default `bar`) (variant) — bar is a full-width border-bottom navbar; pill is a detached, rounded, backdrop-blurred floating bar.

## Use when

- Building a sticky top navigation bar with brand, links, and a call-to-action that collapses into an Alpine-powered mobile menu.
- Choosing between a full-width bordered bar or a detached rounded floating pill shape via the shape prop.

## Avoid when

- Use header-dropdown instead when the navigation needs a dropdown menu for product links.

## Rules

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

## Links

- Docs: https://brokui.dev/blocks/header-navbar
- Registry JSON (files, props, contract): https://brokui.dev/r/open/blocks/header-navbar.json

Working in Claude Code, Cursor or Codex? Give the agent the whole registry through the MCP server or the Brok UI skill.

Guidance

Use when

  • Building a sticky top navigation bar with brand, links, and a call-to-action that collapses into an Alpine-powered mobile menu.
  • Choosing between a full-width bordered bar or a detached rounded floating pill shape via the shape prop.

Avoid when

  • Use header-dropdown instead when the navigation needs a dropdown menu for product links.

Anti-patterns

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

Usage

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

resources/views/welcome.blade.php Blade
<x-blocks.header-navbar />

The controls above the preview are props on this composition. What you picked reads:

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.

Source

The exact, editable file ui:add writes into your app. The preview above renders this same source — there are no preview-only blocks.
