# Navbar with search

A site header with a search field look-alike that opens a command menu of pages, help and actions.

The field opens a command menu grouped into Pages, Help and Actions, and an unmatched search says so with the words you typed. ⌘K, or Ctrl K off Apple devices, opens and closes it while focus is in the header. Below 1024px the field becomes an icon button and the links move into a Sheet. Pass onNavigate to open results with your router.

A Pro block built on Base UI and Tailwind CSS v4.

## Installation

This is a Pro item. Once per project, create a token at https://ui.edbn.me/dashboard/tokens, put it in `.env.local` as `EDBN_TOKEN`, and add the registry to `components.json`:

```json
{
  "registries": {
    "@edbn": {
      "url": "https://ui.edbn.me/r/{name}.json",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer ${EDBN_TOKEN}" }
    }
  }
}
```

Then install:

```bash
npx shadcn@4.19.0 add @edbn/navbar-with-search
