Standard Navigation
Breadcrumb Trail
Wayfinding trail for deep page hierarchies that collapses middle segments behind an ellipsis on narrow screens, keeping the root and current page always visible, with the current page shown as text rather than a dead link.
$ velocityx add standard-breadcrumb-trail
Built for react.
Needs react already installed
as a peer dependency.
An Astro-only project needs @astrojs/react wired up first — this won't run on its own in plain Astro.

The CLI writes this path into your project, relative to its root — nothing else moves.
components/velocity/standard-breadcrumb-trail/BreadcrumbTrail.jsxUsing the Breadcrumb Trail component
Install it with velocityx add standard-breadcrumb-trail.
The CLI writes the source straight into your project — no runtime dependency, no registry
lock-in, and it themes itself from the same primary-*/accent-* scale as the rest of the library.

In-page section links that highlight themselves as the reader scrolls, so a long docs or landing page always shows where you are without you having to hunt for it. Tracks visibility with IntersectionObserver, never a scroll handler, so it costs nothing on long pages.

reactHeader for a drill-down screen: a real back link to the parent (not a history hack), the page title and optional subtitle, and an overflow menu for secondary actions that don't need a permanent button.
reactA ⌘K search trigger that opens a fuzzy-filterable command list for jumping anywhere or running any action without leaving the keyboard. Hand-rolled matching, no dependency, with full focus trapping and keyboard selection out of the box.
