Standard Navigation
Nav With Count Badges
A sidebar nav list that surfaces live counts next to each item — unread messages, open tickets, new records — so people know where to look first without opening every section. Counts past 99 collapse to a clean "99+" instead of blowing out the rail, and empty counts hide the badge entirely.
$ velocityx add standard-nav-count-badges
Built for react.
Needs react already installed

An Astro-only project needs @astrojs/react wired up first — this won't run on its own in plain Astro.

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.
reactWayfinding 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.
