# Hatch Menu

> A menu of marquee strips that cross like a hash sign.

Hatch Menu is a navigation animation ready for your AI assistant, React or plain JavaScript, with no dependencies. Also called crosshatch menu, marquee grid menu or hash menu.

Opening the menu greys the page and slides in four bold link strips, two across and two upright, each scrolling its words like a marquee. A hovered strip lights up in the accent colour. Escape closes it and focus stays inside while open.
