Description

This PR fixes #7981
This PR adds comprehensive documentation for the NavigationNavbar component to the Sistent component catalog on layer5.io

Changes

Added documentation under src/collections/sistent/components/navigation-navbar/:

  • index.mdx (Overview):

    • Architectural overview of the vertical menu system.
    • Interactive showcases for basic, nested (accordion-style), and permission-gated navbar configurations.
    • Demonstration of inert behavior for unauthorized items.
  • guidance.mdx (Design & Usage Guidelines):

    • Clear usage boundaries: explaining that nesting is strictly limited to one level deep.
    • Explanation of route matching limitations (active route highlights must be applied externally via the title node, as the component contains no internal router integration).
    • Clarification on exclusive single-section expansion behavior.
    • Behavior of the showOnWeb desktop breakpoint hiding property.
  • code.mdx (Implementation & API):

    • Step-by-step code examples for flat navigation arrays, hierarchical sub-items, and integration with permissionKey.
    • Examples demonstrating how to simulate active items using custom styled nodes.

Signed commits

  • Yes, I signed my commits.

Adds component metadata, imports, anatomy, usage guidance, responsive behavior, route handling, nesting, and permission handling.
Basic and nested navigation examples
src/collections/sistent/components/navigation-navbar/code.mdx, src/collections/sistent/components/navigation-navbar/index.mdx
Adds flat navigation and single-level nested navigation examples with icons, callbacks, active content, and expandable items.
Permission-gated navigation examples

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 8030e

This documentation-only change is mergeable with owner follow-up: the current content still needs a concrete desktop/mobile showOnWeb example, normalized fragment IDs, and removal of a personal name before publication. These are bounded documentation-quality and compliance issues, with no indicated runtime impact.

Thanks for the review @KumarNirupam1 I had followed another PR for this naming convention! Changed it to "Demo User" now.

Add a concrete showOnWeb desktop/mobile example.

This section only mentions showOnWeb in a bullet. It does not show an item configured with the property or explain the expected desktop and mobile results. Add a rendered example, or link to the example if it is documented elsewhere.
