Navigation systems
Navigation systems help users find information within interfaces. They guide users through content and features. Here are some examples:
- Global navigation: This is usually at the top of a website. It has links to the main sections like "Home," "About," "Services," and "Contact."
- Footer navigation: Found at the bottom of the page, it often repeats the main links and adds extras like "Privacy Policy" or "Terms of Service."
- Sidebar navigation: A side menu with links to related content or subcategories. It helps users explore a section deeply.
- Breadcrumbs: Shows the path taken to get to the current page, like "Home > Products > Electronics > Cameras." It helps users understand where they are and how to go back.
A good navigation system is clear, concise, and helps users find what they need quickly.
