Customization

You can customize everything according to your preferences if it doesn't suit you. What we have done is just provide a solid structure for better scalability and readability of the code.

The sidebar scrollbar is hidden by default but you can still scroll with the keyboards if you have several sidebar-items. You can always change its style in thestyle.module.cssfile.

In the dashboard/Layout.tsx file,Sidebar component has as propmobileOrientation, which indicates the orientation of the sidebar on small devices (viewport < 1024px).

That prop can have two possible values :

• start : sidebar will be aligned to the left
• end : sidebar will be aligned to the right
