Theming
This component paints from 5 steps of
your theme scale — no hardcoded colours, and no font-family of
its own, so your type cascade wins. Override the variables and it follows.
primary-200primary-300primary-500primary-600primary-700Get the Velocity preset and CSS theme from the public source guide. The CLI theme command is not available on npm yet.
File this creates
The CLI writes this path into your project — nothing
else moves. Paths are under your source root, which defaults to
src/; pass
--dest if yours is elsewhere.

How do I install Editorial Mega Menu Header?
Run velocityx add editorial-mega-menu-header . The CLI writes the source straight into your project — it is not a runtime package dependency.
Do I need a licence for Editorial Mega Menu Header?
Yes. It is part of the lifetime library — buy access at https://aidxn.com/shop/velocity-x-component-library/, authenticate once, and install it. Your lifetime licence includes future component updates.
Can I edit Editorial Mega Menu Header after installing it?
Yes — the files are yours once written. The CLI compares its lockfile hash before upgrades and refuses to overwrite code you changed.
Does Editorial Mega Menu Header ship JavaScript to my users?
Yes. It runs in the browser (useEffect, useOutsideClick, useState), so it needs to hydrate — in Astro, give it a client:* directive.
Will Editorial Mega Menu Header match my brand colours?
Yes. It paints entirely from your theme scale — 5 steps of primary-* / accent-* — with no hardcoded hex values and no font-family of its own. Override the theme CSS variables and it follows your design system instead of ours.
Is Editorial Mega Menu Header accessible?
It ships ARIA roles (dialog, menuitem), 6 ARIA attributes, its own keyboard handling. That is read directly from the source rather than claimed — you should still test it in the context you drop it into.
Does Editorial Mega Menu Header work on mobile?
It carries its own responsive rules at the sm, lg breakpoints, so it re-flows rather than relying on the page around it to do the work.
Does Editorial Mega Menu Header pull in any dependencies?
No external ones. Every component in the library is built with react/react-dom or plain Astro only — no GSAP, Radix, Swiper or Headless UI — which is what makes dropping it into an existing project safe.
