# Menu

A component use for menu systems with the correct aria attributes applied.
Internally uses our `{{aria-menu}}` modifier for aria keyboarding.

Additionally it is made to work in tandem with the `<Disclosure />` component if
required (a relatively common usecase)

This component should not be used for top site navigation, but it should be used
for menus within the top site navigation for choosing options, for example
choosing a namespace or partition etc.

```hbs preview-template
<Menu as |menu|>
  <menu.Item>
    <menu.Action>Item 1</menu.Action>
  </menu.Item>
  <menu.Separator />
  <menu.Item>
    <menu.Action>Item 2</menu.Action>
  </menu.Item>
  <menu.Separator>
    Title
  </menu.Separator>
  <menu.Item>
    <menu.Action>Item 3</menu.Action>
  </menu.Item>
</Menu>
```
