Announcement Marquee Navbar

Navbar62: Announcement Marquee Navbar

Navbar topped with a dark, continuously scrolling announcement bar — a looping row of links that pauses on hover and fades out at both edges — sitting above a clean wordmark row with quiet links and a pill CTA.

Installation

Swap YOUR_EMAIL and YOUR_KEY for the email and license key on your account. Find your license key on your account page.

Radix flavor

npx shadcn add "https://ui.beste.co/r/navbar62?email=YOUR_EMAIL&license_key=YOUR_KEY"

Base UI flavor

npx shadcn add "https://ui.beste.co/r-base/navbar62?email=YOUR_EMAIL&license_key=YOUR_KEY"

This installs the block to components/beste/block/navbar62.tsx, the button12 component it uses for its CTA, and its dependencies.

Quick start

The installed file exports navbar62Demo alongside the block: the exact props behind the preview above. Spread it to get a working navbar in one line.

import { Navbar62, navbar62Demo } from "@/components/beste/block/navbar62";

export default function Layout() {
  return <Navbar62 {...navbar62Demo} />;
}

Then replace the demo with your own props. Written out, a trimmed setup looks like this:

import { Navbar62 } from "@/components/beste/block/navbar62";

export default function Layout() {
  return (
    <Navbar62
      brand="Northwind"
      announcements={[
        { label: "We are booking new partners for autumn", href: "/contact" },
        { label: "The Northwind rebrand is live", href: "/journal/rebrand" },
      ]}
      links={[
        { label: "Work", href: "/work" },
        { label: "Studio", href: "/studio" },
      ]}
      button={{ label: "Start a project", href: "/contact" }}
    />
  );
}

Props

type Announcement = { label: string; href: string };
type NavLink = { label: string; href: string };

Behavior notes

• The marquee duplicates the announcements array once ([...announcements, ...announcements]) and animates it with a CSS translateX(0) to translateX(-50%) keyframe running on a 36s linear infinite loop, which is what makes the loop appear seamless.
• Hovering the marquee track pauses the animation via animation-play-state: paused on group-hover.
• Both edges of the marquee have a gradient fade (from-foreground to-transparent) blending the scrolling track into the dark bar.
• The marquee bar uses fixed bg-foreground/text-background tones regardless of theme, it does not adapt like the rest of the header.
• The mobile menu toggle is a plain useState boolean with no outside-click or Escape handling; there is no mega-menu behavior on this navbar.
