Spec

Breadcrumb spacing is 8px between items. The current page and prior hierarchy levels differ in typography and color for clear visual separation.

Breadcrumb Spec

Item Status

Breadcrumb items have two states — Linked to the destination page, or Stateless. The stateless form applies when the current tab depends on a parent that doesn't have a dedicated page.

Breadcrumb State

State

Breadcrumb has 3 states — Current Page, Enabled, Disabled. Enabled and Disabled look the same visually; the cursor change is the differentiator.

Breadcrumb Page Link

Page link

Breadcrumb both signals the page hierarchy and acts as a navigation control. Click an Enabled item (other than the Current Page) to navigate. Disabled items don't navigate.
