A breadcrumb is a secondary navigation scheme that helps to find the user’s location in a website or web application. A breadcrumb menu or trial usually appears in a horizontal line at the top of user’s current page in the form of clickable links.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We should use breadcrumbs for large websites with hierarchically arranged pages. The best example will be an e-commerce website which includes a large variety of products grouped under subcategories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We should not use breadcrumbs for single-level websites that have no logical hierarchy or grouping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Breadcrumb navigation should be considered as an extra feature and should not replace existing primary navigation menus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Types of Breadcrumbs:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Location-Based<\/strong>: Location-Based breadcrumbs show the user where they are in the websites hierarchy. They are used for navigation schemes which has multiple levels.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Attribute-Based<\/strong>: Attribute-Based breadcrumbs displays the attributes of the page. For example, if products are available on that page, it will display them on the menus.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Path-Based<\/strong>: Path-based breadcrumbs show the users step they have taken to arrive on that particular page.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Some points to noted for using breadcrumbs:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Display full breadcrumb trial.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Always start with homepage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Use ‘>’ as a separator between the levels.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Put breadcrumbs at the top of the page.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Boldface the last item and don’t hyperlink it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    6. Avoid using on homepage.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      How to use breadcrumbs in a React project?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      We can create breadcrumbs as a reusable component and call them on all pages. We can add an interface if we want to add any extra functionalities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      Here we are displaying the pathname after the homepage text. This will be grouped under path-based breadcrumbs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      We just need to import the component in respective pages and use them where we need, which is usually at the top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      import PheonixBreadcrumbs from “..\/Components\/PheonixBreadcrumbs”;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
