    <flux:header container sticky>
        <flux:sidebar.toggle class="lg:hidden" />
        
        <flux:navbar class="ml-auto">
            <flux:button variant="ghost" icon="bell" />
            <flux:dropdown position="bottom" align="end">

                    <img src="{{ auth()->user()->avatar }}" class="w-6 h-6 rounded-full" />
                </flux:button>
                <flux:menu>
                    <flux:menu.item href="/profile">Profile</flux:menu.item>
                    <flux:menu.item href="/settings">Settings</flux:menu.item>
                    <flux:menu.separator />
                    <flux:menu.item wire:click="logout">Logout</flux:menu.item>
                </flux:menu>
            </flux:dropdown>
        </flux:navbar>
    </flux:header>
    
    <flux:main>
        <flux:container>
            {{ $slot }}
        </flux:container>
    </flux:main>
    
    <flux:footer container>
        <div class="text-sm text-zinc-500">
            © 2024 My Company. All rights reserved.
        </div>
    </flux:footer>
</flux:layout>

​
Grid Areas

Layout components use CSS Grid areas for positioning: 
[grid-area:header]   /* Header */
[grid-area:sidebar]  /* Sidebar */
[grid-area:main]     /* Main content */
[grid-area:footer]   /* Footer */
This ensures proper layout flow and responsive behavior.

​
Responsive Design

  • Sidebars automatically adjust for mobile viewports
  • Container padding adapts to screen size
  • Headers can be made sticky for better navigation
  • Mobile-first approach with desktop enhancements
Use flux:layout as the root component to ensure proper grid layout for headers, sidebars, main content, and footers.
