Laravel Menu will still be actively maintained, but there are a few principal differences between the two packages. The main goal of Laravel Menu is to build HTML menus from PHP. Laravel Navigation describes an application's navigation tree, which can be used as a base to create navigational elements like menus and breadcrumbs. Laravel Menu has a rich API for HTML generation. Laravel Navigation doesn't do any HTML generation (although we might ship some Blade files in the future). Instead, Laravel Navigation should give you the flexibility to build your own UI without worrying about the complexity of navigation trees and active state. Think of it as a [renderless component](https://adamwathan.me/renderless-components-in-vuejs/). ``` // typically, in a service provider Navigation::make() ->add('Home', route('home')) ->add('Blog', route('blog.index'), function (Section $section) { $section ->add('All posts', route('blog.index')) ->add('Topics', route('blog.topics.index')); }) ->addIf(Auth::user()->isAdmin(), function (Navigation $navigation) { $navigation->add('Admin', route('admin.index')); }); ``` A navigation object can be rendered to a tree, or to breadcrumbs. Some examples when visiting `/blog/topics/laravel`: ``` // Render to tree Navigation::make()->tree(); ``` ``` [ { "title": "Home", "url": "/", "active": false, "children": [] }, { "title": "Blog", "url": "/blog", "active": false, "children": [ { "title": "All posts", "url": "/blog", "active": false, "children": [] }, { "title": "Topics", "url": "/blog/topics", "active": true, "children": [] } ], }, { "title": "Admin", "url": "/admin", "active": false, "children": [] } ] ``` ``` // Append additional pages in your controller Navigation::make()->activeSection()->add($topic->name, route('blog.topics.show', $topic)); // Render to breadcrumbs Navigation::make()->breadcrumbs(); ``` ``` [ { "title": "Blog", "url": "/blog" }, { "title": "Topics", "url": "/blog/topics" }, { "title": "Laravel", "url": "/blog/topics/laravel" } ] ``` ``` // Render the current section Navigation::make()->current(); ``` ``` { "title": "Home", "url": "/", "attributes": [] } ``` Support us ---------- [](#support-us) [![](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/024f4be269d14169f4bff971abd158129fc5c3ce255cf3204fe02e93313364aa/68747470733a2f2f6769746875622d6164732e73332e65752d63656e7472616c2d312e616d617a6f6e6177732e636f6d2f6c61726176656c2d6e617669676174696f6e2e6a70673f743d31)](https://spatie.be/github-ad-click/laravel-navigation) We invest a lot of resources into creating [best in class open source packages](https://spatie.be/open-source).
