Case Studies & Testimonials Navigation Menu for Ark UI

A Success Stories dropdown of four customer quotes from Vercel, Stripe, Airbnb, and Shopify, each with an avatar and five stars.

The bar shows Success Stories. The panel is headed CUSTOMER STORIES and shows four cards: Vercel, Stripe, Airbnb, and Shopify. Each has an avatar, five stars, a quote, and Read case study.

Put proof in the header when the quote should be seen before the customers page. A Card on that page can carry the full story. In React, Ark UI closes the open panel when you press Escape.

FAQ

What is each card?

A whole NavigationMenuLink: an Avatar with the company's logo and initials as fallback, the name, five stars, the quote and Read case study with an arrow.

How is the rating announced?

The stars are hidden from assistive tech and a visually hidden Rated 5 out of 5 follows them. They are filled with the warning token so they follow the theme.

What happens on narrow screens?

The panel is w-[700px] with max-w-full, so it never grows past the screen, but its columns get tight. Below the md breakpoint, show the same links in a Sheet or a Drawer instead.

How do the links use my router?

Each link is your router's link rendered through NavigationMenuLink, so it keeps the menu's styles and focus handling. NavigationMenuLink takes asChild, and the demo puts the Next.js Link inside it.

How does the menu work from the keyboard?

Tab moves between the triggers and the links, Enter or Space opens a trigger's panel, and Escape closes it and returns focus to the trigger. The root is a nav, so screen readers list it as a navigation landmark.

How do I mark the current page?

Set aria-current="page" on the NavigationMenuLink that matches the route, and style it with the aria-[current=page]: variant.
