Semantic variants

You can choose between semantic links and buttons via the following components:
  • MenuItem which renders a button.
  • MenuItemLink which renders a link, using the linkComponent implementation from BraidProvider.
All semantic variants can be used interchangeably within a single menu.

Destructive actions

For destructive actions like “Delete” you can set the menu item’s tone to critical. When using this feature, you may want to consider providing a confirmation via a Dialog.

Data attributes

Braid components are very explicit about the properties they accept, which makes providing arbitrary data attributes not possible. Instead, a data prop can be provided as a single collection of data attributes.
