Breadcrumbs help users understand where they are in your documentation hierarchy and quickly jump back to broader topics.
🧩 What Are Breadcrumbs?
Breadcrumbs are a small navigation element (usually above the page title) that shows the user’s path through your site.
Example: Home > User Guide > Viewing Documentation Cards
🎯 Why Use Them?
