Word Menu Panel

Navbar104: Word Menu Panel

A minimal bar with the brand on the left and a single Menu word next to a CTA on the right. The word drops a full-width panel with three link columns and a bottom row of office locations and social links, and the same panel serves phones and desktops alike.

Installation

Swap YOUR_EMAIL and YOUR_KEY for the email and license key on your account. Find your license key on your account page.

Radix flavor

npx shadcn add "https://beste.dev/r/navbar104?email=YOUR_EMAIL&license_key=YOUR_KEY"

Base UI flavor

npx shadcn add "https://beste.dev/r-base/navbar104?email=YOUR_EMAIL&license_key=YOUR_KEY"

This installs the block to components/beste/block/navbar104.tsx plus the shadcn button primitive it uses.

Quick start

The installed file exports navbar104Demo alongside the block: the exact props behind the preview above. Spread it to get a working navbar in one line.

import { Navbar104, navbar104Demo } from "@/components/beste/block/navbar104";

export default function Page() {
  return <Navbar104 {...navbar104Demo} />;
}

Then replace the demo with your own props. Written out, a trimmed setup looks like this:

import { Navbar104 } from "@/components/beste/block/navbar104";

export default function Page() {
  return (
    <Navbar104
      brand="Meridian"
      columns={[
        {
          title: "Studio",
          links: [
            { label: "Work", href: "/work" },
            { label: "Services", href: "/services" },
          ],
        },
        {
          title: "Company",
          links: [
            { label: "About", href: "/about" },
            { label: "Careers", href: "/careers" },
          ],
        },
      ]}
      locations={[
        { city: "Lisbon", address: "Rua da Prata 12" },
        { city: "Berlin", address: "Torstrasse 140" },
      ]}
      socials={[
        { label: "Instagram", href: "https://instagram.com" },
        { label: "LinkedIn", href: "https://linkedin.com" },
      ]}
      button={{ label: "Start a project", href: "/contact" }}
      labels={{ menu: "Menu", close: "Close", locations: "Locations", socials: "Follow" }}
    />
  );
}

Props

type LinkColumn = {
  title: string;
  links: NavItem[];
};

type Location = {
  city: string;
  address: string;
};

type NavItem = {
  label: string;
  href: string;
};

type ActionButton = {
  label: string;
  href: string;
  variant?: "default" | "outline" | "ghost" | "secondary";
};

Behavior notes

• The panel is server-rendered and always in the markup; it is revealed with CSS (invisible opacity-0 to visible opacity-100, with a small motion-safe: lift), so every link is in the HTML before any script runs.
• One toggle for every viewport: the Menu word carries aria-expanded, aria-controls pointing at the panel and an aria-label from labels, and it opens on hover as well as on click.
• The toggle swaps its text between labels.menu and labels.close by stacking both words in one grid cell and cross-fading them, so the button never changes width.
• Escape, a click outside the header and the pointer leaving the header all close the panel; any link inside closes it on click.
• The panel is capped at calc(100vh - 4rem) and scrolls on its own, which is what lets the same full-width panel work under the bar on a phone.
• The CTA is hidden from the bar below sm and repeated inside the panel instead, so it stays reachable without crowding the bar.
