The Navigation Menu allows displaying the main navigation menu of the app.
It allows for links to direct the user towards the content of your app and/or actions.

- Swipe, Little Swipe, Grid, Slate, and From Scratch are accessible from a button in the header of the application.
This button is displayed on content pages accessible from your navigation menu (unless you set your menu always visible on the web app, or to be displayed upon launching depending on the options available).
- TabBar and Floating TabBar are displayed at the bottom of the screen on native apps, and as a banner on the web app under the header.
The TabBars are displayed on content pages accessible from your navigation menu.
