Overview

A breadcrumb ribbon informs the user of where they are on the site and how they can backtrack if needed. It showcases the drill down of the users journey.

Use of this pattern

• Breadcrumb ribbons should be used throughout a site.
• This component helps to guide the user through their online journey of the site.
• It is appropriate to not use the component in the instance of one page site where no navigation is used or needed.

How it works

• The breadcrumb ribbon is placed directly underneath the header in all instances.
