yii2-dropdown-x
===============

[](#yii2-dropdown-x)

An extended bootstrap dropdown widget for Yii Framework 2 with submenu drilldown. This widget extends the `\yii\bootstrap\Dropdown` widget with some additional controls and adds CSS and JS for enabling a submenu drilldown. The dropdown menu style is optimized for both desktop and mobile devices. The drilldown is triggered on `active` instead of `hover` so that it works equally well on mobile devices.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

The preferred way to install this extension is through [composer](http://getcomposer.org/download/).
