Examples

Rendered live from the maintained Storybook story. Lantern stores only the story id and embeds Storybook rather than duplicating the component or its demo.

Left nav

Rendered live from Storybook

Storybook must be running for this to load — bun run start:storybook from the monorepo root, or set NEXT_PUBLIC_STORYBOOK_URL to a deployed instance.

Props

The component's public API, read from its TypeScript source. Descriptions come from TSDoc on the prop, so this table cannot drift from the component.

PropTypeDefaultDescription
classNamestring—Undocumented — add TSDoc to the prop in the library.
user{ name: string; email: string; avatar?: string }{ name: "You", email: "" }Undocumented — add TSDoc to the prop in the library.

Reference

Transcribed from the component audit. If this disagrees with the source, the source is right.

Source
src/components/layout/LeftNav.tsx
Portability
Copies across unchanged — only the utils import path moves.
Notes
Use as the app's primary space switcher on creator and member routes; space tiles are drag-reorderable and animate into their new position after a drop. Navigation behavior adapts by context: member spaces jump to About, second-layer or profile routes return to the posts view, and mobile behaves differently from desktop for the same tile click.
