Deep nesting

A five-level-deep section of the Docs sidebar — a living example, and visual fixture, of how far navigation nesting goes.

This section nests five levels deep in the left sidebar — the deepest navigation in the sample site. It doubles as a worked example of how aardvark assembles a sidebar tree and as a visual fixture for checking that deeply nested navigation still renders and indents correctly.

There is no depth limit. Each level is an ordinary page that points at its parent in front matter — children attach to a parent by its id, and every level below inherits the docs menu through the chain:

# this page (level 1) — the section root
id: deep-nesting
menu: docs

# a child page (level 2)
parent: deep-nesting

See Navigation menus for the full mechanism.

Walk down the tree — Deep nesting → Level 2 → Level 3 → Level 4 → Level 5. Open Level 2 to start the descent.
