Use the SubNav component for navigation on a dashboard-type interface with another set of navigation components above it. This helps distinguish navigation hierarchy.
To use SubNav with react-router or
react-router-dom, pass
as={NavLink} and omit the selected prop.
This ensures that the NavLink gets activeClassName='selected'
Attention: Make sure to properly label your SubNav with an aria-label to provide context about the type of navigation contained in SubNav.
<SubNav aria-label="Main"><SubNav.Links><SubNav.Link href="#home" selected>Home</SubNav.Link><SubNav.Link href="#documentation">Documentation</SubNav.Link><SubNav.Link href="#support">Support</SubNav.Link></SubNav.Links></SubNav>
