Breadcrumbs

Breadcrumbs are navigational aids used in user interfaces, particularly on websites, to show users their current location within the site’s hierarchy. They typically appear as a trail of links separated by greater-than symbols (>), indicating the path from the homepage to the current page. Breadcrumbs enhance user experience by providing context and easy navigation options, allowing users to understand where they are within the website structure and enabling them to backtrack or navigate directly to higher-level pages. This hierarchical representation helps users orient themselves within complex websites, aiding in both usability and accessibility.
