Shoelace: Any plans for nav bars?
I'm very much still learning cutting edge CSS like variables and grid so I was wondering if you have any plans on incorporating some nav bar examples, much like Bootstrap's, of course. Thanks for sharing this project and keep up the great work!

Unfortunately, the short answer on navbars is "no".
Navigation is (and should be) wildly different from one website to another. It should be a product of the designer's creativity, and no amount of customization Shoelace can offer will provide an adequate solution for creative imaginations.
The same goes for web apps. Navigation can be done so many different ways that it doesn't really make sense to try to tackle it at this level. I prefer sticking to more fundamental components that can be used _along with_ one's navigation.
IMO supporting this sort of high level component would adversely affect the library, both in terms of size and creative freedom. We'd end up with "Bootstrap Syndrome" where many websites and apps look very much the same.
