## Usage

Pass an array of arrays to the `items` prop of the Dropdown component. Each array represents a group of items. Each item can have the following properties:

- `label` - The label of the item.
- `icon` - The icon of the item.
- `avatar` - The avatar of the item. You can pass all the props of the [Avatar](/elements/avatar) component.
- `shortcuts` - The shortcuts of the item.
- `disabled` - Whether the item is disabled.
- `click` - The click handler of the item.

You can also pass properties from the [NuxtLink](https://nuxt.com/docs/api/components/nuxt-link#props) component such as `to`, `exact`, etc.
