Dropdown

  • dropdown-trigger is the container for a button.
  • dropdown-overlay the togglable container for a menu, hidden by default, with a white background and a shadow.

    <MenuItemList>
      <MenuItem>
        <MenuItemLabel>Menu Item</MenuItemLabel>
      </MenuItem>
      <MenuItem>

      <MenuItem>
        <MenuItemLabel>Menu Item</MenuItemLabel>
