shadcn.io is an independent project built on shadcn/ui
Inbox carries a badge of 12 and a chevron. It opens to Unread with 8 and Starred with 4, indented beside a line.
Use it for mail or tickets where the count matters before the folder opens. If the number is the whole message, a Badge is enough. In React, Ark UI does not update the counts.

</Collapsible>FAQ
Which badge is 12, and which are 8 and 4?
12 is a secondary Badge at the end of the Inbox trigger. 8 and 4 are outline badges at the end of the Unread and Starred links.
What is the line beside Unread and Starred?
The links' nav has ms-6 border-s ps-3: a start border that follows the page direction, indented to sit under the Inbox label.
Do Unread and Starred expand too?
No. They're links, built from the folders list at the top of the file. Only Inbox is a trigger.
Does 12 get announced with Inbox?
Yes. The badge is inside the trigger, so the name is Inbox 12. Add visually hidden text, such as unread, if the number needs explaining.
