B4A Library [B4X][B4A] 🌼 B4XDaisyMenu - Stunning, Responsive Tailwind/DaisyUI Style Menus!

Hi Fam

Are you looking to give your apps a massive visual upgrade? Say hello to B4XDaisyMenu, a game-changing custom UI component designed to bring the elegance and simplicity of Tailwind CSS and DaisyUI straight into your B4A, B4i, and B4J projects.

Building beautiful, modern app navigation has never been this easy. Whether you are building mobile sidebars, complex desktop toolbars, or responsive web-like mega menus, B4XDaisyMenu handles it effortlessly.

Key Features & Highlights:

• Orientation Flexibility: Switch seamlessly between vertical and horizontal layouts. Perfect for building responsive interfaces that adapt to screen sizes!
• Size Customization: Choose from DaisyUI standard sizes (xs, sm, md, lg, xl) to perfectly match your app's typography and scale.
• Rich Content Support: Go beyond basic text! Easily integrate icons, notification badges, and active states. You can even create icon-only sidebars for minimalist designs.
• Advanced Navigation Structures: Build deep, nested collapsible submenus, file-tree explorers, or sprawling horizontal mega menus with just a few lines of code.
• Highly Customizable Styling: Fine-tune the corner radius (rounded-box, rounded-full), add elevation shadows (sm to 2xl), configure automatic dividers, and even use an elegant ActiveBorder to highlight the user's current selection.
• Scrollable & Fixed Height: Need to manage large lists? Constrain the menu to a fixed height (h-48) and the component will automatically handle internal scrolling.

Transform your UI from standard to spectacular. Download the library, plug it into your views, and start designing beautiful app experiences today!
Simple Usage Example:
Here is a quick snippet showing how easy it is to initialize a menu, add items, configure badges, and attach it to your layout:

' Declare your menu
Dim menu As B4XDaisyMenu

' Initialize the component (passing the callback activity/class and event name)
menu.Initialize(Me, "menu")

' Configure basic layout and style properties
menu.Orientation = "vertical"
menu.Size = "md"
menu.Dividers = True
menu.BackgroundColor = xui.Color_RGB(248, 247, 251)

' Add a header title
menu.AddTitle("Main Menu")

' Add basic items and items with icons/badges
menu.AddItem("item-home", "Home")
menu.AddIconItem("item-profile", "Profile", "user-solid.svg")
menu.AddIconBadgeItem("item-inbox", "Inbox", "inbox.svg", "120", "neutral")

' Create a collapsible submenu
Dim parent As B4XDaisyMenu = menu.AddSubmenu("item-settings", "Settings", False)
parent.AddItem("sub-security", "Security")
parent.AddItem("sub-notifications", "Notifications")

' Add the constructed menu to a host panel (pnlHost) at X=12dip, Y=10dip
' The width is set to 250dip, and the menu auto-calculates its preferred height
menu.AddToParent(pnlHost, 12dip, 10dip, 250dip, menu.GetPreferredHeight)

(You can handle clicks by utilizing the menu_ItemClick (Tag As Object, Text As String) event!)
Let me know what amazing UIs you build with this! Happy coding!
