When to use

Site headers whose top level items open panels of links, such as docs, components or industry pages
Mega menu panels that lay out links with summaries in columns, with glyphs and a call to action button
Header rows that mix panel triggers with plain top level links styled to match them

When not to use

Links that carry a short summary line under each label: use the Navigation Menu Basic example
Actions on the current page, such as edit, share or sign out, opened from one button: use the Dropdown Menu component
Sections of a signed in app listed down the screen edge and kept in view: use the Sidebar component
A complete header with logo, link panels and a Get Started button already placed: use the Navbar blocks

Agent notes

NavigationMenuLink takes its anchor through render on the base twin and asChild on the radix twin; neither twin reads the other one's prop
Every href is a hash placeholder; point each NavigationMenuLink at a real route, through your router link where you have one
The radix NavigationMenu opens panels in a shared NavigationMenuViewport unless viewport is false; base has no viewport prop and uses align
