Navbar

The Navbar component offers a unified navigation experience across all of Contentful's products. It consists of a top and bottom section, each serving specific purposes. The bottom section is dedicated to navigation items, while the top section provides additional context and actions. This ensures a consistent and intuitive navigation experience throughout the application.
