How to use navigation templates with Kiro
Pick a design
Choose a navigation design above and open it to see it live.
Copy the template
Copy the template from its page. It is one HTML file with no dependencies.
Set up Kiro
Save the template and its DESIGN.md in your project, and add a steering file in .kiro/steering that tells Kiro to follow them in every spec.
Prompt, then refine
Paste it and describe your product. Then follow up with: "Add a task to build this section from design/template.html, following DESIGN.md for colours, type and spacing."
What makes a good navigation section
Common types: solid bars with a hairline border, transparent bars over a hero, floating pill navbars and mega menus for large products.
Four to six links
More than six makes people scan instead of click.
One button that stands out
The main action on the right; sign in stays a plain link.
A real mobile menu
Large tap targets and the main button still visible.
Common mistake: Too many links and two competing buttons. Navbar design ideas →
Keeping the design in Kiro
Kiro plans each feature as a spec with requirements, a technical design and tasks, so it suits teams who want UI work planned as carefully as the code.
What Kiro builds
Code in your project's stack, built task by task from a Kiro spec.
Where the design goes
Save the template and its DESIGN.md in your project, and add a steering file in .kiro/steering that tells Kiro to follow them in every spec.
Kiro and navigation sections
Kiro's spec design.md covers architecture, not looks, so without DESIGN.md the UI falls back to generic choices. Paste the template again with your follow-up prompt if it starts to drift.
What to tell it
Keep the link count and the single primary button, and keep the mobile menu behaviour from the template.
Set it up once with our DESIGN.md templates.
Not sure which navigation design fits?
Ask Mon, the AI design assistant, describe your product and Mon suggests the navigation design and how to prompt Kiro with it.
