Shadcn UI Application Shell Block
ApplicationShell5 is a layout with a floating sidebar that appears detached from the page edges. The sidebar includes a logo header with integrated toggle button, navigation groups with collapsible submenus indicated by chevrons, and a user profile dropdown in the footer. The main content area fills the remaining space.
Light background with the floating sidebar having rounded corners and appearing slightly elevated. Navigation items use the standard shadcn sidebar button styling with icons. Collapsible menu items expand to show nested children. The user footer displays avatar, name, and email with a dropdown for account options.
The floating sidebar variant gives a more modern, card-like appearance compared to full-height sidebars. The detached look works well for apps wanting a softer, less rigid layout. Similar functionality to other sidebar shells but with distinct visual treatment.
