Improve Subnavigation Layout for Cleaner, More Intuitive UI

[it-ismax]

Hello, this is my first idea and suggestion for the project. I think it's a project with a lot of potential. I work as a UI designer, and I would like to contribute a design idea if that's okay with you.

My suggestion is about the subnavigation between the main menus. I believe the current design wastes a lot of the grid space, as the important part here should be the data grid rather than the submenu.

Currently, this is the design:

Additionally, it wastes a lot of screen space, and on laptops, it’s quite annoying since it forces the user to do a lot of horizontal scrolling.

My proposal is to move it to the header. This way, the interface is better utilized, and it becomes cleaner and more intuitive. Since the user can visually see that next to "Products" in the header, for example, the submenus appear, it makes it easier to navigate.

Also, in enterprise applications, this design idea is commonly used because it allows for nested menu options, making it easier to implement a navigation tree in the future.

This implementation is relatively simple, as it would only require modifying the CSS. You could create a method called topSubNavigation() that, when executed, would switch to this layout in case any user prefers the current version. However, I believe the solution I've proposed is the most suitable for the project's growth.

I look forward to hearing back, and thank you very much.
MJM.
