## What moves [#what-moves]

| When                                 | What you see                                           | Timing              | How       |
| ------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------- | --------- |
| Opens, closes or moves between items | Its own direction-aware motion, on your theme's timing | your theme's timing | Automatic |

## Install [#install]

Navigation Menu is shadcn's own component. With `<Cuts />` in your root layout ([Quick start](/docs/installation)), there's nothing else to add:

```bash
npx shadcn add navigation-menu
```

## Turn it off [#turn-it-off]

Put `data-cut="none"` on a navigation menu (or anything around it) to keep shadcn's own motion there. `<Cuts responses="none" />` turns off every response across the app and keeps the cuts. With reduced motion, movement becomes a short fade or nothing.
