Expandable Search Navbar Block

A navigation bar with an expandable search input built with React, Next.js, shadcn/ui, and Tailwind CSS. Click the search icon to smoothly expand a full-width search bar that pushes nav items aside, with click-away and Escape key to collapse.

Add a search-forward navigation bar to your site. The expandable search pattern keeps the navbar clean until users need it, then smoothly animates a full-width input into view. AnimatePresence handles enter/exit transitions while nav items gracefully shift. Perfect for content-heavy sites, documentation portals, and e-commerce storefronts.
