A hierarchical menu is a type of navigational menu that features a list of options arranged in a hierarchical order. It is commonly used in software applications, websites, and other digital platforms. Synonyms for the term include tree menu, nested menu, cascading menu, and multi-level menu. These names all describe the same type of menu structure, where options are organized into categories and subcategories. While the basic concept of a hierarchical menu remains the same, different synonyms may be used depending on the specific context or platform in which it is used. Regardless of the name, a well-designed hierarchical menu is an effective way to help users quickly and easily find the options they need.
