Sidebar Navigation

Use .adb-nav--header headings to label and separate different sections of navigation.

Form Elements
<div class="adb-layout-sidebar adb-layout-column__first">
  <div class="adb-container">
    <div class="adb-container_header">
      <h5 class="adb-container_header--title adb-container_header--item">Form Elements</h5>
    </div>
    <nav class="adb-stack">
      <div class="adb-stack--item">
        <a class="adb-link__nav adb-stack--item_content" href="/">Form Overview</a>
      </div>
      <div class="adb-stack--item">
        <a class="adb-link__nav adb-stack--item_content" href="/">Text Inputs</a>
      </div>
      <div class="adb-stack--item">
        <a class="adb-link__nav adb-stack--item_content" href="/">Selectors</a>
      </div>
      <div class="adb-stack--item">
        <a class="adb-link__nav adb-stack--item_content" href="/">Search</a>
      </div>
      <div class="adb-stack--item">
        <a class="adb-link__nav adb-stack--item_content" href="/">Upload</a>
      </div>
      <div class="adb-stack--item">
        <a class="adb-link__nav adb-stack--item_content" href="/">Sortable</a>
      </div>
    </nav>
  </div>
</div>

The primary case is a list of category links in which the parent category is also a link. Use .adb-count to show the number of items in a category.

Categories
<div class="adb-layout-sidebar adb-layout-column__first">
  <div class="adb-container">
    <div class="adb-container_header">
      <h5 class="adb-container_header--title adb-container_header--item">Categories</h5>
    </div>
    <nav class="adb-stack">
      <div class="adb-stack--item adb-stack--item__nesting">
        <a class="adb-link__nav adb-stack--item_content adb-stack--item_content__nesting adb-is-selected" href="#">
          <span class="adb-stack--affix adb-link__nav--affix adb-count">6</span>
          Parent Category
        </a>
        <ul class="adb-stack">
          <li class="adb-stack--item">
            <a class="adb-link__nav adb-stack--item_content">
              <span class="adb-stack--affix adb-link__nav--affix adb-count">2</span>
              Child Category
            </a>
          </li>
          <li class="adb-stack--item">
            <a class="adb-link__nav adb-stack--item_content">
              <span class="adb-stack--affix adb-link__nav--affix adb-count">2</span>
              Child Category
            </a>
          </li>
          <li class="adb-stack--item">
            <a class="adb-link__nav adb-stack--item_content">
              <span class="adb-stack--affix adb-link__nav--affix adb-count">2</span>
              Child Category
            </a>
          </li>
        </ul>
      </div>
    </nav>
  </div>
</div>

Use when a parent category or heading expands on clicking to show child navigation but is not itself a linked page.
