Examples
Link Component
When using the Next.js <Link />
component, you can use navigationMenuTriggerStyle()
to apply the correct styles to the trigger.
import { navigationMenuTriggerStyle } from "@/components/ui/navigation-menu"
<NavigationMenuItem>
<Link href="/docs" legacyBehavior passHref>
<NavigationMenuLink className={navigationMenuTriggerStyle()}>
Documentation
</NavigationMenuLink>
</Link>
</NavigationMenuItem>
