+## Layout Manager Directives
+
+> **Docs:** [Layout Manager](https://www.infragistics.com/products/ignite-ui-angular/angular/components/layout)
+
+The Layout Manager is a pair of Angular directives (`igxLayout` / `igxFlex`) that wrap CSS Flexbox. Apply `igxLayout` to any container to control its children's flow; apply `igxFlex` to individual children to control their flex properties.
+
+```typescript
+import { IgxLayoutDirective, IgxFlexDirective } from 'igniteui-angular/directives';
+```
+
+```html
+<!-- Basic row layout -->
+<div igxLayout igxLayoutDir="row" igxLayoutJustify="space-between">
+  <div igxFlex>Item 1</div>
+  <div igxFlex>Item 2</div>
+  <div igxFlex>Item 3</div>
+</div>
+```
+
+### Common Layout Patterns
+
+#### App Shell (Sidebar + Content)
+
+```html
+<div igxLayout igxLayoutDir="row" style="height: 100vh;">
+
+  <!-- Sidebar column -->
+  <div igxFlex igxFlexGrow="0" igxFlexShrink="0" igxFlexBasis="240px"
+       igxLayout igxLayoutDir="column" class="sidebar">
+    <div igxFlex>Nav item 1</div>
+    <div igxFlex>Nav item 2</div>
+  </div>
+
+  <!-- Main content column -->
+  <div igxFlex igxLayout igxLayoutDir="column" class="main">
+    <div igxFlex igxFlexGrow="0" class="header">Header</div>
+    <div igxFlex class="body">
+      <!-- Nested row -->
+      <div igxLayout igxLayoutDir="row">
+        <div igxFlex>Col 1</div>
+        <div igxFlex>Col 2</div>
+        <div igxFlex>Col 3</div>
+      </div>
+    </div>
+    <div igxFlex igxFlexGrow="0" class="footer">Footer</div>
+  </div>
+
+</div>
+```
+
+#### Centered Content
+
+```html
+<div igxLayout igxLayoutDir="row" igxLayoutJustify="center" igxLayoutItemAlign="center"
+     style="height: 100vh;">
+  <div igxFlex igxFlexGrow="0">Centered content</div>
+</div>
+```
+
+#### Wrapping Tiles
+
+```html
+<div igxLayout igxLayoutDir="row" igxLayoutWrap="wrap" igxLayoutJustify="flex-start">
+  @for (item of items; track item.id) {
+    <div igxFlex igxFlexBasis="200px" igxFlexGrow="0" class="tile">
+      {{ item.title }}
+    </div>
+  }
+</div>
+```
+
+### `igxLayout` Directive Inputs
+
+| Input | Values | Default | Description |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `igxLayoutDir` | `'row'` \| `'column'` | `'row'` | Flex direction |
+| `igxLayoutReverse` | `true` \| `false` | `false` | Reverse flow order |
+| `igxLayoutWrap` | `'nowrap'` \| `'wrap'` \| `'wrap-reverse'` | `'nowrap'` | Child wrapping |
+| `igxLayoutJustify` | `'flex-start'` \| `'center'` \| `'flex-end'` \| `'space-between'` \| `'space-around'` | `'flex-start'` | Main axis alignment |
+| `igxLayoutItemAlign` | `'flex-start'` \| `'center'` \| `'flex-end'` \| `'stretch'` \| `'baseline'` | `'stretch'` | Cross axis alignment |
+
+### `igxFlex` Directive Inputs
+
+| Input | Type | Default | Description |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `igxFlexGrow` | `number` | `1` | How much the element grows to fill space |
+| `igxFlexShrink` | `number` | `1` | How much the element shrinks when space is limited |
+| `igxFlexBasis` | `string` | `'auto'` | Initial main-axis size (e.g., `'200px'`, `'30%'`) |
+| `igxFlexOrder` | `number` | `0` | Visual order among siblings |
+
+### Key Rules for Layout Manager
+
+- `igxLayout` affects its **immediate children only** — nest multiple `igxLayout` containers for deeper control
+- Combine `igxLayoutDir="column"` on the outer container with `igxFlex` on children to create page shells
+- `igxFlexGrow="0"` on headers/footers/sidebars prevents them from stretching; leave it at `1` (default) for the main content area
+- This is a thin CSS Flexbox wrapper — the container element gets `display: flex` applied

+
+## Dock Manager
+
+> **Docs:** [Dock Manager (Angular)](https://www.infragistics.com/products/ignite-ui-angular/angular/components/dock-manager)
+> **Full API Docs:** [Dock Manager Web Component](https://www.infragistics.com/products/ignite-ui-web-components/web-components/components/dock-manager.html)
+
+The Dock Manager is a **separate package** (`igniteui-dockmanager`) and is implemented as a **Web Component** (`<igc-dockmanager>`). It provides IDE-style dockable, resizable, floating, and tabbed pane layouts. It is a **premium** (licensed) component.
+
+### Installation
+
+```bash
+npm install igniteui-dockmanager
+```
+
+### Setup
+
+Because Dock Manager is a Web Component, it requires two one-time setup steps:
+
+**1. Register custom elements — `main.ts`:**
+
+```typescript
+import { defineCustomElements } from 'igniteui-dockmanager/loader';
+
+// Must be called before bootstrapApplication
+defineCustomElements();
+```
+
+**2. Add `CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA` to every standalone component that uses `<igc-dockmanager>`:**
+
+```typescript
+import { Component, CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA } from '@angular/core';
+
+@Component({
+  selector: 'app-dock-manager',
+  templateUrl: './dock-manager.component.html',
+  schemas: [CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA]
+})
+export class DockManagerComponent { ... }
+```
+
+### Basic Usage
+
+```typescript
+import { ChangeDetectionStrategy, Component, CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA } from '@angular/core';
+import {
+  IgcDockManagerLayout,
+  IgcDockManagerPaneType,
+  IgcSplitPaneOrientation
+} from 'igniteui-dockmanager';
+
+@Component({
+  selector: 'app-dock-manager',
+  templateUrl: './dock-manager.component.html',
+  schemas: [CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA],
+  changeDetection: ChangeDetectionStrategy.OnPush
+})
+export class DockManagerComponent {
+  layout: IgcDockManagerLayout = {
+    rootPane: {
+      type: IgcDockManagerPaneType.splitPane,
+      orientation: IgcSplitPaneOrientation.horizontal,
+      panes: [
+        {
+          type: IgcDockManagerPaneType.contentPane,
+          contentId: 'sidebar',
+          header: 'Explorer'
+        },
+        {
+          type: IgcDockManagerPaneType.documentHost,

+                  },
+                  {
+                    type: IgcDockManagerPaneType.contentPane,
+                    header: 'File 2',

+
+### Pane Types
+
+| `IgcDockManagerPaneType` | Purpose |
+|---|---|
+| `splitPane` | Splits space horizontally or vertically between child panes |
+| `contentPane` | A single leaf pane that renders a slotted element via `contentId` |
+| `tabGroupPane` | Groups multiple `contentPane` children as tabs |
+| `documentHost` | A special area for `documentOnly: true` panes (like an editor area) |
+
+### `IgcSplitPaneOrientation`
+
+| Value | Layout |
+|---|---|
+| `horizontal` | Children placed left-to-right |
+| `vertical` | Children placed top-to-bottom |
+
+### Key `contentPane` Properties
+
+| Property | Type | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| `contentId` | `string` | Matches the `slot` attribute on the rendered HTML element |
+| `header` | `string` | Tab/title bar label |
+| `isPinned` | `boolean` | `false` = auto-hidden (collapsed to edge); default `true` |
+| `documentOnly` | `boolean` | Restricts pane to `documentHost` areas only |
+| `size` | `number` | Relative size within parent split |
+| `allowClose` | `boolean` | Show close button (default `true`) |
+| `allowPinning` | `boolean` | Allow user to pin/unpin (default `true`) |
+| `allowFloating` | `boolean` | Allow user to float the pane (default `true`) |
+
+### Key `splitPane` / floating pane Properties
+
+| Property | Type | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| `orientation` | `IgcSplitPaneOrientation` | `horizontal` or `vertical` |
+| `size` | `number` | Relative size in the parent split |
+| `allowEmpty` | `boolean` | Allow pane to remain when all children are closed |
+| `floatingWidth` | `number` | Initial width of floating pane (px) |
+| `floatingHeight` | `number` | Initial height of floating pane (px) |
+| `floatingLocation` | `{x, y}` | Initial top-left corner position of floating pane |
+
+### Key Rules for Dock Manager
+
+1. **Separate package** — `igniteui-dockmanager` is installed independently of `igniteui-angular`
+2. **Call `defineCustomElements()` in `main.ts`** before `bootstrapApplication` — without this the `<igc-dockmanager>` element renders as an unknown element
+3. **Add `CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA`** to every standalone component or NgModule that uses `<igc-dockmanager>`
+4. **Slot names = `contentId` values** — the `slot="..."` attribute on child elements must exactly match the `contentId` string in the layout
+5. **Premium component** — requires a licensed Ignite UI subscription; verify availability before recommending to users
+6. **Not part of `igniteui-angular`** — do not import from `igniteui-angular` entry points; all Dock Manager types come from `igniteui-dockmanager`

+  <ng-template igxDrawer>
+    <nav>
+      <span igxDrawerItem [isHeader]="true">Navigation</span>
+      <span igxDrawerItem igxRipple [active]="activeRoute === 'home'" routerLink="/home">

+
+<button igxButton (click)="drawer.toggle()">Toggle Menu</button>
+```
+
+Key inputs: `[isOpen]`, `[pin]` (dock to content), `[pinThreshold]` (auto-pin at viewport width), `[width]`, `[miniWidth]`.
+
+Events: `(opened)`, `(closed)`, `(pinChange)`.
+
+> **AGENT INSTRUCTION:** The Navigation Drawer uses the Ignite UI overlay/animation system — ensure `provideAnimations()` is in `app.config.ts`.
