Tabbed Mega Menu Navigation Menu for Ark UI

A Products menu with Web, Mobile, and Infrastructure tabs, three product links on each tab, and a help line.

The bar shows Products. The panel has Web, Mobile, and Infrastructure tabs, three links on each, and a line that says Need help choosing?

Use tabs when one panel would be too tall for every product. Put the same tabs on the page with Tabs if the catalog is the page. In React, Ark UI closes the open panel when you press Escape.

FAQ

How are the tabs set up?

The tabs are uncontrolled and start on Web. defaultValue is web, and each TabsTrigger and TabsContent has the tab's value.

Where do the tabs come from?

A list at the top of the file, each tab a label, a value and its three products, mapped to one trigger and one panel each.

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.
